Introduction

Ozederm Cream is only meant for external use and should be used as advised by your doctor. A thin layer of the medicine should be applied only to the affected areas of the skin with clean and dry hands. If it gets into your eyes, nose, mouth, or vagina, rinse with water. It may take several days to weeks for your symptoms to improve, but you should keep using this medicine regularly. The course of the treatment should be completed to ensure better efficacy of the medicine. If your condition does not improve or gets worse, you should talk to your doctor. This medicine is generally safe to use. However, you might experience application site irritation, redness, and burning sensation at the application site. If these side effects persist for a longer duration, inform your doctor. Regular application of moisturizer to the skin can help to overcome or prevent dryness of the skin. It is not likely that other medicines you take by mouth or injection will affect the way it works, but talk to your doctor before using it if you have used a similar medicine before and had an allergic reaction. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

Ozederm Cream is a combination of four medicines: Ofloxacin, Ornidazole, Itraconazole, and Clobetasol. Ofloxacin is an antibiotic that kills bacteria by preventing them from reproducing and repairing themselves. Ornidazole is also an antibiotic that kills other infectious microorganisms in addition to bacteria by damaging the DNA. Itraconazole is an antifungal medication that kills and stops the growth of fungi by destroying its cell membrane, thereby treating your skin infection. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy.

You have been prescribed Ozederm Cream to get relief from itching, swelling, and other discomforts due to skin infections. Apply it as a thin layer onto a clean, dry, unbroken infected area of skin. 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 show any improvement after 1 week of treatment. Do not share your towel or clothes with anyone and wear clean clothes every day to prevent infection.
