Cremazole (1%) 60ml Skin Lotion

Betamethasone Dipropionate 0.05% is a medium-strength corticosteroid that effectively reduces inflammation and itching. It is formulated as an ointment, cream, or lotion and is often used to treat skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis. Betamethasone works by binding to the glucocorticoid receptor, which inhibits the production of inflammatory proteins, thereby reducing inflammatory responses. These actions make it an ideal component for relieving the symptoms of inflammatory conditions that are accompanied by fungal infections. Clotrimazole 1% is an antifungal agent that targets fungal infections of the skin and nails. It works by inhibiting the fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme 14α-demethylase, thereby disrupting the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell membrane. This disruption causes the cell membrane to become compromised, leading to the death of the fungus. Clotrimazole is proven effective in treating athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. When used in combination, Betamethasone Dipropionate 0.05% and Clotrimazole 1% can be a powerful treatment for inflammatory skin conditions that are aggravated by fungal infections. The betamethasone helps to manage the inflammation and itching, while the clotrimazole tackles the fungal infection. This approach provides dual benefits, making it a strategic intervention for the targeted conditions.
