How Betnovate-C Cream works
Betnovate-C Cream contains Betamethasone and Clioquinol. Betamethasone is a corticosteroid that blocks chemical messengers called prostaglandins, which cause redness, swelling, and itching in the skin. By reducing these signals, the cream calms inflammation and soothes irritated skin. Clioquinol works as both an antibiotic and antifungal agent. It prevents bacteria and fungi from growing and multiplying on the skin, which helps clear infections. This dual action targets infections while controlling inflammation. Together, these components make the cream effective for treating infected and inflamed skin conditions. Regular use ensures the infection is fully controlled, reducing the chance of recurrence and improving skin health.
