About CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+NEOMYCIN

CLOBETASOL PROPIONATE+NEOMYCIN belongs to the class of dermatological medication, primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections. Bacterial infection occurs when bacteria enter the body through broken skin. Bacterial skin infections are generally mild and can be treated using topical antibiotics. Symptoms of a skin infection include rashes, blisters, cracked/dry skin, itching, redness, swelling, stinging, or burning sensation.
