Fourderm Cream is used to reduce swelling, itching, and redness caused by certain skin infections caused by bacteria and fungus. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another). Bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause infection. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly.

Fourderm Cream is a combination of four drugs: Chlorhexidine (antiseptic), Clobetasol (corticosteroid), Miconazole (antifungal), and Neomycin (antibiotic). Chlorhexidine belongs to the class of antiseptics that works by killing the micro-organisms. It prevents infection. Clobetasol belongs to the class of corticosteroids that work by acting inside skin cells and inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. Miconazole belongs to the class of antifungals that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and killing fungi. Neomycin belongs to the class of antibiotics that works by inhibiting the production of essential proteins that are necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply and increase in numbers. Thus, it kills the bacteria and fungi, preventing skin infection.
