About Tafgm Cream
Tafgm Cream belongs to a class of dermatological medication ‘Topical Anti-Infectives with Corticosteroids’ used to treat skin conditions like eczema (itchy inflamed skin), psoriasis (red, itchy, scaly patch on skin), and other types of rash. Also, Tafgm Cream helps to reduce swelling, itching, and redness caused due to specific 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.
Tafgm Cream is a combination of three drugs, namely Betamethasone (corticosteroid), Gentamicin (antibiotic), and Miconazole (antifungal). Betamethasone 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 typically. Gentamicin 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.
Tafgm Cream is only for external use. Take a small amount of Tafgm Cream on the finger and apply it as a thin layer on the clean and dry affected area. Avoid contact of Tafgm Cream with nose, ears, mouth, or eyes. In case Tafgm Cream comes in connection with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Some people may experience skin peeling, dry skin, itching, redness, irritation, or burning sensation at the site of application. Most of these side effects of Tafgm Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects worsen or persist, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Tafgm Cream, iodine, or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a breastfeeding mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Tafgm Cream. Do not use Tafgm Cream in more than prescribed doses, or for a prolonged time as it may cause adverse effects.
