Clotigem B Lotion

Clotigem B Lotion is a topical medication that combines Beclometasone (0.025% w/v), a corticosteroid, and Clotrimazole (1% w/v), an antifungal agent. This lotion is designed to treat a range of skin conditions caused by fungal infections and inflammation. It works by reducing inflammation and irritation, while also eliminating fungal growth, helping to restore healthy skin and providing relief from symptoms such as itching, redness, and swelling.

Uses of Clotigem B Lotion

Clotigem B Lotion is used for the treatment of the following conditions:

How Clotigem B Lotion Works
