How it works

Clobetasol is a topical steroid that prevents the production of prostaglandins-chemical substances that cause the symptoms of allergy like redness, itching and swelling. Ofloxacin is an antibiotic that stops the action of a bacterial enzyme called DNA-gyrase which helps to kill bacteria and prevent their further growth. Ornidazole kills bacteria and other infectious germs by damaging their DNA. Terbinafine stops the growth of fungi by preventing the fungal cell wall formation.
