How Otigard Products work
Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone is a combination of three medicines: Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone1, Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone2 and Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone3. Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone1 is an antibiotic which stops bacterial growth by preventing synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone2 is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Chloramphenicol + Clotrimazole + Beclometasone3 is a steroid. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that cause redness, swelling and itching.
