Dipnate N Cream 30 gm

Dipnate N Cream 30 gm is a dermatological medicine primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema (inflamed, itchy, cracked and rough skin patches), psoriasis (skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales), dermatitis (itchy inflammation of the skin), melasma (brown patches on the face) and insect bites. Dipnate N Cream 30 gm is also used to treat prurigo nodularis (hard, itchy lumps on the skin), lichen simplex chronicus (scaling of the skin due to repetitive itching), lichen planus (swelling and irritation in the skin, hair, nails and mucous membranes), seborrhoeic dermatitis (scaly patches and red skin mainly on the scalp), miliaria (prickly heat), and anal and genital intertrigo (chaffing of the skin). Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes illness.

Dipnate N Cream 30 gm is composed of Betamethasone (corticosteroid), Neomycin (antibiotic), and Zinc sulfate (antiseptic and astringent). Betamethasone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. It treats inflammation and itchiness caused by eczema and psoriasis. Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Zinc sulfate is antiseptic and astringent. It is topically used for healing skin wounds and ulcers. It sulfate cleanses the skin, tightens pores, and reduces oil production. It also has peeling and antioxidant effects.

Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Common side effects of Dipnate N Cream 30 gm include itching, dryness, and burning sensation at the application site, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea. These side effects are temporary and gradually resolve over time.
