Medicinal Benefits

Swissderm-Af Cream 10 gm is used to treat fungal and bacterial skin infections, such as eczema, psoriasis, ringworm, athlete's foot, and jock itch. Swissderm-Af Cream 10 gm comprises Betamethasone (steroid), Clotrimazole (antifungal), and Gentamicin (antibiotic).

Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication and treats athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. It stops the growth of fungi by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane.
