Terbicad 5 Cream 15G

Terbicad 5 Cream 15G is used to treat skin infections. Skin infections occur when germs such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites invade the skin and cause irritation, redness, and other issues.

Terbicad 5 Cream 15G contains Ketoconazole, Tolnaftate, Clobetasol Propionate, Neomycin, and Iodochlorhydroxyquinoline. Ketoconazole stops the growth of fungi by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. Tolnaftate works by stopping the growth of fungi that cause skin infections. Clobetasol Propionate works by inhibiting the release of chemical messengers that cause inflammation and redness. Neomycin works by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required for the survival of the bacteria. Iodochlorhydroxyquinoline belongs to the class of antifungals with additional antibacterial action. Together, Terbicad 5 Cream 15G helps in treating skin infections.

In some cases, Terbicad 5 Cream 15G may cause side effects such as skin peeling, dryness, burning sensation, irritation, stinging sensation, itching and redness at the application site. 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.

Terbicad 5 Cream 15G is a cocktail of medications used to treat skin infections caused by microorganisms like bacteria and fungi. It kills and inhibits the growth of infection-causing microorganisms, effectively clearing the infection and relieving symptoms. It also inhibits the release of chemicals that cause symptoms like itchiness, redness, and swelling. As a result, this medicine reduces the inflammation caused by these infections. Even if your symptoms go away, you should continue to use Terbicad 5 Cream 15G for the duration prescribed; otherwise, they may return. Depending on the infection, this could take several weeks. Even if your infection has been completely cured, you may need to apply it on a regular basis to keep the symptoms from returning.
