About Beclomethasone+econazole+neomycin
Beclomethasone+econazole+neomycin is a combination medication used to treat bacterial and fungal skin infections. A bacterial skin infection occurs when bacteria enter the body through broken skin. A fungal skin infection happens when a fungus attacks the tissue, leading to infection.
Beclomethasone+econazole+neomycin contains three active ingredients: Beclomethasone (a steroid), Econazole (an antifungal), and Neomycin (an antibiotic). Beclomethasone works by inhibiting the release of chemical messengers that cause inflammation and redness in the skin. Econazole kills or prevents the growth of fungi and yeast. Neomycin acts by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, ultimately leading to the death of bacteria. Together, Beclomethasone+econazole+neomycin effectively treats skin infections.
In some cases, Beclomethasone+econazole+neomycin may cause side effects such as skin irritation, itching, burning sensation, redness, and rash. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
