Mometasone Furoate is a potent corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation, itching, and redness, while Neomycin is an antibiotic that targets and eliminates bacterial infections on the skin. Sonaderm-NM Cream is effective in managing conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and other bacterial skin infections.

How Sonaderm-NM Cream Works

Sonaderm-NM Cream works by combining two active ingredients. Mometasone Furoate, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation and suppresses the immune system's overactive response, which helps alleviate symptoms like redness, swelling, and itching. Neomycin, an antibiotic, acts against a broad range of bacteria, preventing and treating infections on the skin. Together, these ingredients provide a dual action to treat both the inflammatory and infectious components of skin conditions.
