About Clop-GM Neo Cream
Clop-GM Neo Cream 15 gm belongs to a class of dermatological medication ‘Topical Anti-Infectives with Corticosteroids’ used to treat fungal and bacterial infections of the skin. Also, Clop-GM Neo Cream 15 gm helps to reduce swelling, itching, and redness caused due to certain skin problems. Fungal infection can affect our skin and cause infection, which may be contagious (spread from one person to another). The bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grows in the body and cause infection, thereby infecting any part of the body.
Clop-GM Neo Cream 15 gm is a combination of three drugs, namely: Clobetasol (corticosteroid), Clotrimazole (antifungal) and Neomycin (antibacterial). Clobetasol belongs to the class of corticosteroids that works by acting inside skin cells and inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching and swelling. When the skin reacts to any allergens, such chemicals are released normally. The fungal cell membranes are essential for their survival as they prevent the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stops the leakage of cell contents. Clotrimazole belongs to the class of antifungals that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and kills fungi. Neomycin belongs to the class of antibacterial that works by inhibiting the production of essential proteins required for bacteria to grow, multiply and increase in numbers, thereby destroying the bacteria.
