Mometasone Furoate Cream 0.10% contains Mometasone Furoate, a medium-potency synthetic corticosteroid designed for topical application. This cream formulation is suitable for dry, scaly, or thickened skin lesions. Mometasone works by reducing the body's inflammatory response, effectively alleviating symptoms such as redness, itching, and swelling associated with various skin conditions. It achieves this by inhibiting the release of certain chemical mediators that trigger inflammation.

This cream is widely indicated for the treatment of various inflammatory and pruritic (itchy) skin conditions that respond to corticosteroids. Common uses include: psoriasis (excluding widespread plaque psoriasis), atopic dermatitis (eczema), and other corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. It is particularly effective for drier, scaly, or thickened skin lesions where a cream base provides good moisturization and adherence. The typical dosage involves applying a thin layer of the cream to the affected skin area usually once daily, or as directed by a physician. It should be gently rubbed into the skin. It is crucial to wash hands before and after application. Due to its corticosteroid nature, prolonged continuous use, especially on the face, in skin folds, or under occlusive dressings, should be avoided unless specifically directed by a doctor, as this can increase systemic absorption and potential side effects. Treatment duration is often limited to a few weeks, and the frequency of application should be reduced as the condition improves. Mometasone Furoate Cream 0.10% should be stored at controlled room temperature, typically below 30°C (86°F), protected from direct light and moisture, and kept in its original tube.

• Psoriasis: Manages the inflammation, redness, and scaling of psoriasis, particularly on the body.
• Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema): Reduces itching, redness, and inflammation associated with various forms of eczema.
• Contact Dermatitis: Effective for localized inflammatory reactions caused by contact with irritants or allergens.
• Other Corticosteroid-Responsive Dermatoses: Used for other inflammatory and itchy skin conditions that respond to topical steroid therapy, especially those with dryness or scaling.

Hydrocortisone Acetate Cream 1% contains Hydrocortisone Acetate, a mild to moderate potency corticosteroid designed for topical application. It works by reducing inflammation, itching, and redness in various skin conditions by suppressing the body's inflammatory response. Hydrocortisone acts on cells to inhibit the release of chemicals that cause swelling and irritation.

This cream is widely indicated for the treatment of various inflammatory skin conditions that respond to corticosteroids. Common uses include: eczema (mild to moderate forms), dermatitis (such as contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis), insect bites, allergies, and mild forms of psoriasis. It provides symptomatic relief from itching, redness, and swelling. The typical dosage involves applying a thin layer of the cream to the affected skin area usually once or twice daily, or as directed by a physician. It should be gently rubbed into the skin. It is crucial to wash hands before and after application. While generally safe for short-term use, prolonged continuous application, especially on large areas, the face, or under occlusive dressings, should be avoided unless specifically directed by a doctor, to minimize potential side effects. Treatment duration is often limited to a few weeks. Hydrocortisone Acetate Cream 1% should be stored at controlled room temperature, typically below 30°C (86°F), protected from direct light and moisture, and kept in its original tube.

• Eczema (Dermatitis): Reduces inflammation, itching, and redness in mild to moderate forms of eczema and various dermatitis types.

Most side effects are generally localized to the application site and temporary, often improving as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, prolonged or excessive use of topical corticosteroids can lead to more significant side effects. If any side effects persist, worsen, or cause significant concern, it is important to seek medical advice.

Betamethasone Dipropionate With Gentamicin & Zinc Sulphate Cream is a topical medication formulated to treat a variety of inflammatory and infected skin conditions. It combines three active ingredients: Betamethasone Dipropionate (0.05% w/w), a potent corticosteroid that effectively reduces inflammation, redness, itching, and swelling by suppressing immune responses; Gentamicin Sulfate (equivalent to 0.1% w/w Gentamicin), an aminoglycoside antibiotic that combats bacterial infections by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis; and Zinc Sulphate (1% w/w), which possesses mild astringent, antiseptic, and protective properties, aiding in wound healing and skin barrier function. This multi-action formula addresses inflammation, bacterial infection, and promotes skin recovery.

This cream is primarily indicated for the treatment of various inflamed dermatoses that are complicated by or at high risk of secondary bacterial infections. This includes conditions such as infected eczema, infected contact dermatitis, certain types of infected psoriasis, and impetigo, where a combination of anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and healing properties is required. It helps to alleviate associated symptoms like itching, redness, and pus formation. The typical dosage involves applying a thin layer of the cream to the affected skin area usually once or twice daily, or as directed by a physician. It should be gently rubbed into the skin. It is crucial to wash hands before and after application. Due to the presence of a potent corticosteroid, prolonged continuous use, especially on the face, groin, or axillae, and under occlusive dressings, should be avoided unless specifically directed by a doctor, as it can increase systemic absorption and potential side effects. Treatment duration is usually short-term, typically not exceeding 1-2 weeks. Betamethasone Dipropionate With Gentamicin & Zinc Sulphate Cream should be stored at controlled room temperature, typically below 30°C (86°F), protected from direct light and moisture, and kept in its original tube.

• Wound Healing: Zinc Sulphate aids in the healing process of minor skin abrasions or inflamed areas.

Most side effects are generally localized to the application site and temporary, often improving as your body adjusts to the medicine.
