Uses

Fenbre-Plus is primarily prescribed for the following conditions:

• Bacterial skin infections: It is effective in treating bacterial skin infections, such as impetigo and infected eczema.
• Fungal skin infections: Fenbre-Plus can be used to treat fungal infections, including ringworm and athlete’s foot.

Dosage and Administration

Please follow the instructions provided by your healthcare professional regarding the dosage and administration of Fenbre-Plus. Typically, a thin layer of the cream should be applied to the affected area(s) of the skin, gently massaging it until it is absorbed. The frequency of application and duration of treatment may vary depending on the specific condition being treated. Use the medication as directed and not exceed the recommended dosage.

Mechanism of Action

Fenbre-Plus contains a combination of active ingredients that work in different ways to treat skin infections and reduce inflammation. Ofloxacin and Ornidazole have antimicrobial properties that help to eliminate bacteria and certain parasites. Itraconazole is an antifungal agent that targets the growth of fungi, while Clobetasol is a corticosteroid that helps to reduce inflammation and itching associated with certain skin conditions.

In rare cases, more serious side effects may occur. If you experience severe skin irritation, allergic reactions (such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing), or any other unexpected or severe symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.

Certain medications may interact with Fenbre-Plus and affect its effectiveness or increase the risk of side effects.
