Mechanism of Action
Clobetasol Propionate reduces inflammation by suppressing immune responses in the skin, thereby relieving redness, itching, and swelling. Neomycin Sulphate works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, eliminating susceptible bacteria. Nystatin binds to fungal cell membranes, causing leakage of cell contents and fungal cell death. Together, these components provide broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antifungal action.
