How Propyzole NF Cream works
Propyzole NF Cream is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Clotrimazole which treat fungal skin infections. Clobetasol is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Clotrimazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.
