How it works
Etaze-AF Lotion is a combination of two medicines: Mometasone and Terbinafine. Mometasone is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Terbinafine is an antifungal that stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.
