Sigmaderm N Cream is used to treat various 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), ringworm, athlete’s foot (fungal infection between the toes), jock itch (fungal infection in the skin of the genitals, inner thighs and buttocks), insect bites, and stings.

Sigmaderm N Cream consists of Betamethasone, Clotrimazole, and Neomycin. Betamethasone, a corticosteroid, works by blocking prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. Clotrimazole, an antifungal drug, stops fungi's growth by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. Neomycin is an antibiotic that prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.

Sigmaderm N Cream is for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If Sigmaderm N Cream gets into your eyes, nose, mouth or vagina, rinse with water.

Sigmaderm N Cream should be used with caution and under doctor's supervision if you have pituitary gland diseases, cataract or glaucoma, diabetes, liver and kidney diseases.
