How Bactimax Cream works
Bactimax Cream is a combination of three medicines: Miconazole, Mometasone and Nadifloxacin which treat skin infections. Miconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi while Nadifloxacin is an antibiotic which kills bacteria that cause skin infections. Mometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.
