How FOURDERM CREAM Works
FOURDERM
CREAM provides relief from corticosteroid -responsive dermatoses,
eczema. and psoriasis, where Chlorhexidine gluconate kills
microorganisms by binding strongly with skin and managing their growth,
Clobetasol propionate manages occurrence of swelling, redness &
itchy skin (inflammatory reaction) by blocking the production of
prostaglandins (chemical messengers responsible for inflammation),
Miconazole manages fungal infection by managing the fungus from forming
their own protective covering (thus resulting in their destruction) and
Neomycin manages bacterial infections by inhibiting bacterial protein
synthesis which results in bacterial cell destruction thus managing
corticosteroid -responsive dermatoses, eczema. and psoriasis in affected
individuals.
