Introduction of Butesone-M Cream

Butesone-M Cream is a combination medicine used in the treatment of skin infections. It works by stopping the growth of microorganisms that cause infection. It also blocks the production of certain chemical messengers that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy.

Butesone-M Cream is for external use only. It should be applied as per dose and duration suggested by the doctor. Applying it at the same time every day will help you remember to use it. The affected area should be clean and dry before application of the medicine. You must wash your hands thoroughly before and after applying this medicine. Do not stop using it until you have finished the complete course, even when you feel better. If you stop using this medicine too early, the infection may continue to grow and may return or worsen.

These are usually mild but let your doctor know if they bother you or last more than a few days. Avoid direct contact with eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental exposure occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. Before using this medicine inform your doctor if you are pregnant.
