How Clotrimed GM Products work
Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin is a combination of three medicines: Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin1, Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin2 and Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin3, which treats skin infections. Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin1 is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin2 is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Clobetasol + Miconazole + Neomycin3 is an antibiotic. It stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by the bacteria to carry out vital functions.
