Clearbact Cream 30G: Triple Action Relief for Skin Infections
Clearbact Cream is a widely used dermatological treatment in Nigeria, formulated to provide comprehensive relief for various skin conditions. Often referred to as a triple action cream, it effectively addresses inflammation, fungal growth, and bacterial infections in one application.
What is Clearbact Cream Used For?
Clearbact is primarily indicated for inflammatory skin conditions (dermatoses) where a secondary infection is present or likely. Common uses include:
- Eczema and Contact Dermatitis: To reduce redness, itching, and swelling.
- Psoriasis: To manage scaling and inflammation.
- Fungal Infections: Including ringworm (tinea), athlete's foot, and jock itch.
- Bacterial Infections: Treating minor infected wounds or skin irritation.
Key Active Ingredients
Clearbact Cream contains a balanced combination of three active ingredients:
- Betamethasone Dipropionate (0.05% w/w): A potent corticosteroid that provides fast relief from itching and inflammation.
- Clotrimazole (1.0% w/w): A broad-spectrum antifungal agent that targets the root cause of fungal skin infections.
- Neomycin Sulfate (0.5% w/w): A trusted antibiotic that treats and prevents bacterial infections on the skin.
How to Use Clearbact Cream
For best results, follow these steps:
- Wash and thoroughly dry the affected area.
- Apply a thin layer of the cream and gently massage it until absorbed.
- Use twice daily, or as specifically directed by your healthcare provider.
- Important: Avoid prolonged use on the face or large areas of the body without medical supervision, as this can lead to skin thinning.
If your symptoms persist after a few days of treatment, please contact a GoMed pharmacist or consult your doctor for a professional assessment.
Precautions and Side Effects
Clearbact is for external use only. While it is generally well-tolerated, some users might experience a mild stinging sensation or "peppery" feeling upon application. Do not use this cream for bleaching or skin lightening. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult a medical professional before use.
