Fourderm Cream 20gm

Fourderm Cream is used to treat skin infections and inflammation caused by bacteria or fungus. It helps reduce itching, redness, and rashes. It should not be used on the face, private areas, or open wounds, and not for children under 2 years old.

1. Start by cleaning gently and drying the affected area of your skin.
2. Apply the cream in a thin layer over the affected area.
3. Gently rub the cream into your skin until it is fully absorbed.
4. Continue using the cream for the entire duration recommended by your doctor, even if symptoms improve.
5. Consult your doctor for personalised advice on using this medication.

Fourderm Cream is applied topically.

Fourderm Cream works in the human body in the following ways:

• Clobetasol propionate (0.05%): This is a potent corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by blocking the production of prostaglandins — chemical substances that trigger inflammation.
• Neomycin sulphate (0.50%): It is an antibiotic that prevents protein synthesis in bacterial cells, leading to the death of the bacteria causing skin infections.
• Miconazole nitrate (2.00%): This is an antifungal agent that stops the growth of fungi causing skin infections. It does this by inhibiting the production of ergosterol, a component critical to fungal cell walls.
• Chlorhexidine gluconate (0.20%): It is an antiseptic that works by disrupting the cell walls of bacteria and fungi, leading to their death.

• Keep the cream in a cool, dry place, ideally below 25°C.
• Avoid exposing the cream to direct sunlight or heat.
• Ensure the cream is securely capped after every use to prevent air exposure.
• Always store the cream out of reach of children.
• Make sure to use the cream before its expiration date.

• Since Fourderm Cream is used to manage skin infections, maintaining good hygiene will be beneficial. Always clean the skin well before applying the cream, and avoid touching or scratching the infected area.
• Wearing breathable fabrics can help prevent further skin irritation. Opt for cotton clothing and avoid rough materials like wool that might aggravate an infection.
