Betclo-GM Cream is a combination of three drugs: Clobetasol, Miconazole, and Neomycin. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers), which makes the skin red, swollen and itchy. Miconazole is an antifungal agent that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and kills fungi. Neomycin is an antibiotic used in treating bacterial infections of the skin.
