The drug "Triderm": analogues, indications for use, contraindications

Cream "Triderm" and its analogs are prescribed for dermal neuroallergic diseases, complicated by bacterial infection. The drug has a number of contraindications, before using it consult with your doctor.

The combination of a hormonal drug (Betamethasone), an antibiotic (Gentamicin) and an antifungal component (Clotrimazole) causes antiallergic, antibacterial and antifungal activity of Triderm. Analogs of this drug have a similar composition.

Wet eczema, allergic dermatitis, neurodermatitis, dermatomycosis - all these intractable skin diseases are accompanied by itching and pain in the place of injury. Especially a lot of inconveniences and painful sensations are delivered to the patients by inflammation, localized in the area of inguinal folds, caused by a fungal infection. If the treatment does not start on time, the skin becomes loose and a bacterial infection can enter the resulting weeping wound. In this case, the appointment of antifungal drugs does not give a noticeable positive result - treatment is required by a combined agent capable of affecting not only the fungus, but also the bacteria.

With redness and scaling of the skin, accompanied by itching, it is necessary to contact a dermatologist at an early stage of the disease to prevent the development of complications. If complications could not be avoided, doctors prescribe treatment with the complex hormonal drug Triderm.

Analogues of the drug: Akriderm (Russia) and Candiderm (India) - have identical component composition and the same efficacy, at a lower cost.

The forms of release (cream or ointment) differ only in the composition of the auxiliary substances. Included in them the main active ingredients have anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, local hypothermic, anti-edematous, fungicidal (antifungal) and antibacterial action.
