How it works
Ointy CBN Cream is a combination of three medicines: Beclometasone, Neomycin, and Clotrimazole which treat skin infections. Beclometasone is a steroid that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Neomycin is an antibiotic that stops the growth of bacteria while Clotrimazole is an antifungal that stops the growth of fungi on the skin. Together, they treat your skin infection effectively.
Quick Tips
Ointy CBN Cream helps treat skin infections. It is for use on skin only. Do not use it in your eyes, mouth, or vagina. Rinse with cold water if you accidentally get it in these areas. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects. If you think the area of skin you are treating has become more irritated, you should stop using Ointy CBN Cream and consult your doctor. 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.
