Dipsid-Plus Cream treats various skin infections and is a combination of three medicines: Clobetasol, Clotrimazole, and Fusidic acid. Clobetasol is a corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and vasoconstrictive properties. It blocks the production of chemical mediators of inflammation that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. It works by relieving inflammation and itching caused by plaque psoriasis and other skin conditions. Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication that stops fungi's growth by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. Fusidic acid is an antibacterial/antibiotic that prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. It is used to treat infections like dermatitis, spots, cuts, grazes, impetigo (weeping, crusty and swollen patch of skin) and folliculitis (inflammation of one or more hair follicles).
