How Candibiotic Plus Ear Drop works
Candibiotic Plus Ear Drop works by fighting bacterial infections, treating fungal infections, and reducing inflammation. Beclometasone, a corticosteroid, helps reduce redness, swelling, and itching by blocking inflammatory substances. Neomycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic, stops bacterial growth by interfering with the protein synthesis of bacteria. Clotrimazole, an antifungal agent, disrupts the fungal cell membrane, leading to fungal cell death. This combination helps relieve symptoms and clears infections in the ear.
