How Castor NF Products work
Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole is a combination of three medicines: Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole1, Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole2 and Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole3. Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole1 is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole2 is an antibiotic. It kills bacteria by preventing them from reproducing and repairing themselves. Fluocinolone acetonide + Ciprofloxacin + Clotrimazole3 is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.
