Con B Lotion

Con 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 variety of skin conditions, particularly those caused by fungal infections and inflammatory skin disorders. It works by reducing inflammation, relieving itching and redness, and eliminating fungal growth, helping to restore healthy skin.

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

• Fungal skin infections, such as athlete’s foot, ringworm, and jock itch

How Con B Lotion Works

Con B Lotion combines Beclometasone and Clotrimazole to provide dual action. Beclometasone works to reduce inflammation, swelling, and itching, while Clotrimazole targets and kills the fungal infection, helping the skin heal and preventing further growth of the fungus.
