Neoskin Triple Action Cream 30g
Neoskin Cream is a highly effective "triple action" topical treatment used for various inflammatory skin conditions (dermatoses) that are complicated by bacterial or fungal infections. It is a popular choice in Nigeria for managing complex skin issues where inflammation and infection occur together.
What is Neoskin Cream Used For?
Neoskin is formulated to provide fast relief from itching, redness, and swelling. Its triple-action formula combines three powerful active ingredients to target different aspects of skin infections:
- Anti-inflammatory: Betamethasone Dipropionate (0.05% w/w) helps reduce swelling and irritation.
- Antifungal: Clotrimazole (1.0% w/w) treats fungal growth like ringworm or candidiasis.
- Antibacterial: Neomycin Sulfate (0.5% w/w) combats surface bacterial infections.
This combination makes it suitable for treating eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis when there is a risk of a secondary infection.
How to Use Neoskin Cream
For the best results, apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area 2 to 3 times daily. Gently rub it in until absorbed. Ensure the skin is clean and dry before application. It is recommended to use this medication only for the duration prescribed by your healthcare provider to avoid skin thinning.
Important Precautions
Neoskin is a potent medicated cream and should be used with care.
- Face Use: Use on the face only if specifically directed by a pharmacist or doctor, as the skin there is more sensitive.
- Duration: Avoid long-term continuous use, especially on large areas of the body.
- Bleaching: Neoskin is a therapeutic medication and is not a bleaching cream. It does not contain hydroquinone.
If you have questions about whether this is the right treatment for your skin condition, you can contact a GoMed pharmacist for professional advice.
