Propygenta NF Cream

Propygenta NF Cream is a topical corticosteroid and antibiotic cream used to treat various skin conditions, including inflammatory and non-inflammatory dermatoses.

Composition: Propygenta NF Cream contains two active ingredients:

1. Clobetasol (0.05% w/w): a synthetic corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune system’s response.
2. Neomycin (0.5% w/w): a topical antibiotic that works by killing bacteria on the skin.

Mechanism of Action: Clobetasol works by:

1. Reducing inflammation by suppressing the production of pro-inflammatory mediators
2. Reducing the migration of white blood cells to the affected area
3. Suppressing the immune system’s response to the allergen or irritant

Neomycin works by:

1. Inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, leading to bacterial death
2. Interfering with the transfer of nutrients across the bacterial cell membrane

Indications: Propygenta NF Cream is used to treat:

1. Inflammatory and non-inflammatory dermatoses (e.g., eczema, psoriasis, contact dermatitis)
2. Skin allergies (e.g., allergic reactions, atopic dermatitis)
3. Skin infections (e.g., bacterial, fungal, viral)

Dosage: Apply a thin layer of Propygenta NF Cream to the affected area 2-3 times a day, as needed.

Side Effects: Common side effects of Propygenta NF Cream include:

1. Skin irritation (redness, itching, burning)
2. Allergic reactions (rash, hives)
3. Dryness and cracking of the skin

Rare but serious side effects include:

1. Hypersensitivity reactions
2. Increased risk of infections
3. Suppression of the immune system
