Curesafe-NF Cream is a combination of four medicines: Ciprofloxacin, Metronidazole, Terbinafine and Clobetasol. Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic that kills bacteria by preventing them from reproducing and repairing themselves. Metronidazole is also an antibiotic that kills other infectious microorganisms in addition to bacteria by damaging the DNA. Terbinafine is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their protective covering. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.

You have been prescribed Curesafe-NF Cream for the treatment of skin infections. It may take several weeks to show its action. Keep using it as suggested by your doctor. Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying. Apply it as a thin layer onto a clean, dry, unbroken infected area of skin. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with water if you accidentally get the cream in these areas. Use moisturizer regularly to overcome the skin dryness during the course of treatment. Don't use this medicine more often or for longer than advised by your doctor. Inform your doctor if the treated skin area does not improve after 1 week of treatment. Do not share your towel or clothes with anyone and wear clean clothes every day to prevent infection.
