Doctor’s Overview — Dr. Naila Khan, MBBS, FCPS (Dermatology, Karachi)

This combination cream is used for inflammatory skin conditions complicated by infection. It relieves itching and redness while controlling microbial growth. Treatment should be short-term and strictly supervised, as prolonged corticosteroid use on the skin may cause thinning or other side effects.
