SUPIROCIN B PLUS OINTMENT 15GM

SUPIROCIN B PLUS OINTMENT 15GM belongs to a class of drugs called topical antibiotics combined with corticosteroids. It is used to treat bacterial infections of the skin, such as impetigo (a weeping, crusty and swollen patch of skin). Bacterial skin infections occur when bacteria enter the body through a scratch or cut in the skin. They often begin as small, red bumps that increase in size slowly.

SUPIROCIN B PLUS OINTMENT 15GM contains Beclomethasone dipropionate (corticosteroid) and Mupirocin (antibiotic). Beclomethasone dipropionate works by acting inside skin cells and inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. Mupirocin is a topical antibiotic that works by causing bacteria to produce faulty and abnormal proteins. Thus, it kills the bacteria and clears the infection.
