About Propygenta NF Cream

Propygenta NF Cream belongs to the class of dermatological medication, primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections. Bacterial infection occurs when bacteria enter the body through broken skin. Bacterial skin infections are generally mild and can be treated using topical antibiotics. Symptoms of a skin infection include rashes, blisters, cracked/dry skin, itching, redness, swelling, stinging, or burning sensation. 

Propygenta NF Cream consists of two medicines, namely: Clobetasol propionate and Neomycin. Clobetasol propionate is a corticosteroid. It blocks prostaglandins' production (chemical messengers) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. On the other hand, Neomycin is an antibiotic used in treating bacterial infections of the skin. It prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.

Use this medication on the skin only as advised by the doctor. Propygenta NF Cream is generally safe to use. Sometimes you may experience side effects like burning, irritation, itching, redness, and thinning of skin at the application site. Most of these side effects of Propygenta NF Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Brief your medical history to the doctor, if you are allergic to any of its components. Let your doctor know if you have any fungal infections (candida infections, ringworm, or athlete's foot) or any viral infections (herpes or chickenpox), acne, rosacea (redness of the skin with small, red, pus-filled bumps on the face), and psoriasis before starting to use Propygenta NF Cream. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Propygenta NF Cream with proper consultation and caution.
