Gentamicin + Clotrimazole + Betamethasone + Lidocaine

Gentamicin + Clotrimazole + Betamethasone + Lidocaine is a multi-action combination medicine used to treat painful and inflamed skin infections caused by bacteria and fungi. Gentamicin is an antibiotic that helps kill infection-causing bacteria, while Clotrimazole is an antifungal agent that stops the growth of fungi responsible for common skin infections.

This combination is commonly prescribed for infected skin rashes, eczema with infection, dermatitis, fungal infections with inflammation, and painful skin conditions. It helps control infection, reduces irritation, and provides quick comfort at the application site. When used as directed by a doctor, this medicine supports faster healing, relieves discomfort, and restores healthy skin. Its four-way action makes it an effective solution for managing complex and painful skin infections safely.
