About Surfaz SN Cream

Surfaz SN Cream is a prescription topical cream used to treat inflammatory skin conditions that are accompanied by bacterial or fungal infections. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as infected eczema and infected dermatitis, where itching, redness, swelling, and irritation occur alongside infection. Skin infections can be uncomfortable and frustrating, especially when they interfere with sleep and daily activities. Surfaz SN Cream is designed to address several aspects of the problem at the same time by reducing inflammation while treating infection.

For best results, apply Surfaz SN Cream consistently and exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider, usually once or twice daily. Apply it to clean, dry skin and continue treatment for the full duration recommended by your doctor, even if your symptoms improve earlier. Keeping the affected area clean and dry and avoiding the sharing of personal items, such as towels or clothing, can help support recovery.

Surfaz SN Cream is generally well tolerated. Some people may experience mild, temporary irritation, such as burning, stinging, or redness at the application site. However, stop using Surfaz SN Cream and seek medical advice promptly if you develop severe burning, worsening irritation, skin peeling, or signs of an allergic reaction, such as swelling or a widespread rash. Neomycin, one of the active ingredients, is a recognized contact allergen and may occasionally cause new or worsening skin irritation in sensitive individuals.

Talk to your doctor before using Surfaz SN Cream if you have a history of skin thinning, tuberculosis of the skin, viral skin infections (such as chickenpox, herpes, or shingles), or chronic skin conditions such as rosacea, acne, or perioral dermatitis (a rash around the mouth). Surfaz SN Cream should not be used on untreated viral or tubercular skin lesions, open wounds, or deep cuts.

Although only small amounts are typically absorbed through the skin, prolonged use, use over large areas, or application under tight coverings can increase absorption. Inform your doctor about any other skin products you are using. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, treating a child, or caring for an elderly individual, consult your healthcare provider before starting treatment.

FAQs

Surfaz SN Cream is used to treat fungal and bacterial skin infections. It treats skin inflammation due to allergies or irritants, eczema (inflamed, itchy, cracked, and rough skin patches), psoriasis (skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy/uneven, red patches covered with white scales), and insect bites and stings.
Surfaz SN Cream consists of Clotrimazole, Neomycin and Beclomethasone dipropionate. Clotrimazole stops fungal growth by causing damage to the fungal cell membrane. Neomycin prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Beclomethasone dipropionate works by blocking prostaglandin production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy.
Surfaz SN Cream is for external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not apply Surfaz SN Cream to open wounds, deep cuts, blisters, severely damaged skin, or sunburned skin unless specifically advised by your doctor. Do not cover the treated area with airtight dressings unless instructed by your healthcare provider.
Surfaz SN Cream should be used with caution and under a doctor's supervision if you have dehydration problems, cataract or glaucoma, diabetes, gastrointestinal diseases, hearing problems (ototoxicity), osteoporosis (weak and brittle bones), muscle weakness, liver and kidney diseases.
Surfaz SN Cream consists of beclomethasone dipropionate, which can cause a rise in blood sugar levels by suppressing insulin secretion. Hence, it is advised to consult your doctor before starting Surfaz SN Cream if you are diabetic. Monitor your blood glucose levels regularly.
You are required to maintain at least a three-hour gap after the application of Surfaz SN Cream if you are using more than one topical product.
