Uses of Clobetasol + Nadifloxacin

  • Clobetasol + Nadifloxacin is primarily used to manage various inflammatory and infectious skin conditions and belongs to the group of potent corticosteroid and quinolone antibiotic medicines.

  • It is specifically indicated for managing infected eczema, infected contact dermatitis, secondarily infected skin rashes, and erythema multiforme.

Side effects of Clobetasol + Nadifloxacin

Common side effects of using Clobetasol + Nadifloxacin include:

  • A burning sensation on the skin

  • Persistent itching

  • Dryness of the skin

  • Skin peeling

How Clobetasol + Nadifloxacin works

  • Clobetasol + Nadifloxacin is a potent corticosteroid and antibiotic combination.

  • Clobetasol is a super-high potency corticosteroid. It works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers (pro-inflammatory mediators) that are responsible for redness, swelling, and itching of skin.

  • Nadifloxacin is a topical fluoroquinolone antibiotic. It fights against the bacteria causing skin infections by preventing them from reproducing and repairing themselves. This is done by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes, which are essential for bacterial DNA replication and transcription.
