About CLOBET GM OINTMENT 15GM

CLOBET GM OINTMENT 15GM belongs to a class of dermatological medication ‘Topical Anti-Infectives' combined with Corticosteroids used to treat fungal and bacterial infections of the skin. Also, CLOBET GM OINTMENT 15GM helps to reduce swelling, itching, and redness caused due to certain skin problems. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another). Bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause infection. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly.

CLOBET GM OINTMENT 15GM is a combination of three drugs, namely Clobetasol (corticosteroid), Gentamicin (antibiotic), and Miconazole (antifungal). 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. Gentamicin belongs to the class of antibiotics that works by causing bacteria to produce faulty and abnormal proteins. Thereby, kills the bacteria and clears the infection. The fungal cell membranes are essential for their survival as they prevent the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents. Miconazole belongs to the class of antifungals that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and kills fungi.

The symptoms of a fungal infection include scaly skin, blisters, itching, swelling, irritation, and redness. Antifungal medicines are usually used to treat fungal infections.

Bacterial infection: It is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, infect, and grows in the body. It can target any part of the body and multiply very quickly. Bacteria come in three basic shapes, namely spherical, rod, or spiral-shaped. Bacteria may be gram-positive (have thick cell walls) or gram-negative (do not have cell walls). Appropriate tests are done to identify bacterial strains, and based on the results, proper medication is prescribed. Some common symptoms of bacterial infection include cough, fever, and tiredness.
