About Well Derm Cream

Well Derm Cream belongs to a class of dermatological medication that is used to reduce swelling, itching and redness caused by bacterial and fungal skin infections. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus infects the tissue. Bacterial skin infections occur when bacteria penetrate through hair follicles or the skin breaks, allowing them to infect the skin.

Well Derm Cream is a combination of chlorocresol, Clobetasol, Miconazole and Neomycin. Clobetasol blocks the production of prostaglandins, chemical messengers that can cause the skin to become red, swollen, and itchy. Miconazole works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and killing fungi. Neomycin works by inhibiting the production of essential proteins necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply and increase in numbers. Chlorocresol acts as a preservative.

Well Derm Cream is for external use only and is generally safe to use. Some people may experience side effects such as dry skin, burning, irritation, itching, and redness at the application site. Most of the side effects of Well Derm Cream do not require medical attention and usually resolve on their own over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Brief the doctor about your medical history if you are allergic to Well Derm Cream or any of its components. Let your doctor know if you have any fungal infections, viral infections, acne, rosacea, or psoriasis. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Well Derm Cream with proper consultation and caution. Unless your doctor advises, do not wrap or cover the treated area with bandages. Do not apply Well Derm Cream to broken skin or cuts.
