Viclob N Cream is used to treat various types of skin infections, minimizing symptoms of inflammation such as redness, swelling, and itching, and preventing the growth of infection-causing microorganisms to promote faster healing of infections. Viclob N 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 the application of 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.
Viclob N Cream is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Neomycin. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Neomycin is an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
How should I use Viclob N Cream?
Use Viclob N Cream as directed by your doctor or according to the instructions on the label. Apply a thin layer of cream two to three times a day, or as advised, to cover the affected area. The dose will depend on the condition being treated. Wash your hands after using the cream unless it's for treating hand infections. Avoid contact with your eyes.
What precautions should I take when using Viclob N Cream?
Do not use Viclob N Cream on your face, and avoid contact with your eyes. Do not cover the treated area with a bandage or dressing, as this can increase absorption of the medicine and raise the risk of side effects. Only use Viclob N Cream for the condition it's prescribed for. Do not give it to others even if their symptoms appear similar.
What happens if I use more than the recommended dose of Viclob N Cream for a long time?
Use Viclob N Cream only as directed by your doctor. Taking higher doses or using it for extended periods can lead to changes in skin color, thinning or weakening of the skin, visible veins under the skin, and increased hair growth. The medicine may also be absorbed into the bloodstream, causing weight gain, high blood pressure, and facial rounding. If symptoms worsen, consult your doctor.
Can I stop using Viclob N Cream when my symptoms improve?
No, do not stop using Viclob N Cream even if symptoms seem to have improved. Complete the full course of treatment to ensure the infection is fully cured.
What are the contraindications for using Viclob N Cream?
Using Viclob N Cream can be harmful for patients with known allergies to its components or excipients. Avoid using it for fungal infections (ringworm, athlete's foot), viral infections (herpes, chickenpox), acne, rosacea, or any other conditions without consulting your doctor.
How should I store and dispose of Viclob N Cream?
