Dandrotin B Cream is a combination medicine used to treat various types of fungal skin infections, minimizing symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching, etc., by acting against the infection-causing microorganisms. Dandrotin B Cream is only meant for external use and should be used as advised by your doctor. A thin layer of the medicine should be applied only to the affected areas of the skin with clean and dry hands. Wash your hands before and after applying the medicine. If it gets into your eyes, nose, mouth, or vagina rinse with water. It may take several days to weeks for your symptoms to improve, but you should keep using this medicine regularly. The course of the treatment should be completed to ensure better efficacy of the medicine. If your condition does not improve or gets worse, you should talk to your doctor.
Dandrotin B Cream is a combination of two medicines: Beclometasone and Ketoconazole. Beclometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Ketoconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.
How to use Dandrotin B Cream?
Apply Dandrotin B Cream thinly and in sufficient quantity to cover the affected areas as directed by your doctor. The recommended frequency of application is two or three times per day, targeting specific areas of concern. Wash your hands after using Dandrotin B Cream, unless it is intended for treating skin infections on the hands.
Can I stop taking Dandrotin B Cream when my symptoms are relieved?
No, do not discontinue Dandrotin B Cream prematurely. It's essential to complete the prescribed duration of treatment even if you feel better. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is fully eradicated.
What precautions need to be taken while using Dandrotin B Cream?
Dandrotin B Cream should not be applied to the face. Avoid prolonged use of the medication and do not cover the treated area with a bandage or dressing, as this can increase absorption and potentially lead to increased side effects. This medicine should only be used by the patient themselves and should never be given to others if they experience similar symptoms.
Will Dandrotin B Cream be more effective if taken more than prescribed?
No, Dandrotin B Cream will not be more effective if used in excess. Overuse may lead to increased absorption of the medication and potential side effects such as skin thinning or weakening. If you experience a worsening of symptoms, consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
