How DERMOLIN GM CREAM Works

DERMOLIN GM CREAM contains three medicines, namely beclomethasone, clotrimazole

Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication which works by inhibiting the synthesis
of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. Without
ergosterol, the cell membranes become weakened and leaky, leading to fungal cell
damage.

Neomycinis an antibiotic which stops protein synthesis in bacteria which is
necessary for it to survive. As a result, it disrupts bacterial growth and
replication and controls the spread of bacterial infection.
