Onabet SD Solution is used to treat skin infections caused by fungi. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. The symptoms of a fungal infection include scaly skin, blisters, itching, swelling, irritation and redness.
Onabet SD Solution contains Sertaconazole (anti-fungal) and Mometasone (corticosteroid). Sertaconazole works by preventing the formation of fungal protective covering, thereby stopping their growth. Mometasone works by inhibiting the release of chemical messengers that cause inflammation and redness. Together, Onabet SD Solution helps in treating fungal skin infections.
In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as a burning sensation, irritation, itching and redness at the site of application. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Do not use Onabet SD Solution if you have a skin reaction or irritation to any steroid medicine. Consult your doctor before using Onabet SD Solution if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use Onabet SD Solution in more than prescribed doses or on a large area of skin for a longer duration unless advised by the doctor. Do not wrap or cover the treated area with a bandage unless your doctor advises.
