Canstat B Cream
PRODUCT DETAILS
About Canstat B Cream
BETAMETHASONE+CLOTRIMAZOLE is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat fungal infections, such as ringworm, jock itch (red and itchy rash in warm and moist areas of the body), athlete’s foot (fungal infections between toes). Fungal infection occurs when a fungus invades and affects the tissue on the skin. Symptoms of a fungal infection include skin rash, irritation, redness, and scaling of the skin.
BETAMETHASONE+CLOTRIMAZOLE is composed of two medicines: Betamethasone (steroid) and clotrimazole (antifungal). Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication used to treat various fungal infections, such as vaginal yeast infections, oral thrush, and ringworm. Clotrimazole stops the growth of fungi by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. It is also used to treat athlete’s foot and jock itch. Betamethasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids, which block prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy.

BETAMETHASONE+CLOTRIMAZOLE may increase the sugar level in blood and urine, inform your doctor if you have diabetes before taking BETAMETHASONE+CLOTRIMAZOLE. Topical use of corticosteroids (Betamethasone) may sometimes cause systemic immunosuppression while treating infections. This condition may worsen the infections, hence BETAMETHASONE+CLOTRIMAZOLE should be carefully used with patients with active infections.
