Dermac gm Cream is a combination of three medicines: Clobetasol, Gentamicin, and Miconazole, which treat skin infections. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy, providing temporary relief of symptoms. Gentamicin is an antibiotic that kills bacteria by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Miconazole is an antifungal that stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.

Your doctor has prescribed Dermac gm Cream to cure your infection and improve symptoms. Wash your hands with soap before and after applying the cream. Do not share your towel or clothes with anyone. Wear clean clothes every day to prevent infection. You may have to use it for a long time before your skin infection starts to improve. Be patient and keep using it every day. Avoid getting it in the eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental exposure occurs, rinse immediately with plenty of water. If you think the area of skin you are treating has become more irritated and infected, you should stop using Dermac gm Cream and consult your doctor. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
