Uses of Acderm Cream
Benefits of Acderm Cream
Acderm Cream is used to treat fungal infections like ringworm and rash in folds of skin (areas like armpit or beneath the breast). It is also used to treat various bacterial skin infections like eczema and contact dermatitis. It also reduces swelling, redness, and itching and so helps prevent scratching that can further irritate the skin. You may notice your skin starting to get better within 4-5 days. Keep using Acderm Cream for as long as it is prescribed.

Quick tips
- Acderm Cream helps treat skin infections.

- Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
- If you think the area of skin you are treating has become more irritated, you should stop using Acderm Cream and consult your doctor.
