Overview Oxoderm Ointment
DermaComb ointment is a topical formulation treating diverse skin infections. It alleviates inflammatory symptoms like redness, swelling, and pruritus, while exhibiting antimicrobial properties against causative pathogens. Apply only externally, as directed by your physician, a thin layer to affected, clean, dry skin. In case of accidental eye, nasal, oral, or vaginal contact, flush thoroughly with water. Symptom improvement may take days or weeks; consistent use is crucial. Complete the prescribed course for optimal results. Consult your doctor if your condition worsens or fails to improve. Common, typically transient side effects include application-site itching, dryness, redness, and burning. Regular moisturizing and adequate hydration can mitigate dryness. Serious adverse reactions are uncommon. Report any allergic reaction (rash, itching, swelling, dyspnea, etc.) immediately. Inform your physician of all current or recent medications before use. Pregnant or lactating individuals should use with medical guidance. Avoid use if allergic; consult your doctor for alternative treatment. Refrain from touching or scratching infected areas to prevent infection spread or exacerbation.

How Oxoderm Ointment works:
Oxoderm Ointment combines four active agents—terbinafine, clobetasol propionate, ofloxacin, and ornidazole—to effectively manage skin infections. Terbinafine, an antifungal, inhibits fungal growth by disrupting cell membrane synthesis. Clobetasol propionate, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation and itching by suppressing prostaglandin production, thereby mitigating redness and swelling. Ofloxacin, a bactericidal antibiotic, impedes bacterial reproduction and repair mechanisms. Ornidazole, another antibiotic, combats a broader spectrum of pathogens, including bacteria, by damaging their DNA.
