How Dermi-Zio 6 Cream works

Dermi-Zio 6 Cream is a combination of anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial medicines. Clioquinol is an antifungal agent that acts by interacting with DNA synthesis thus killing the fungi that are responsible for causing the infection. Clobetasol works by preventing the production of certain chemicals that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Dexpanthenol acts like a skin moisturizer, improving hydration, reducing water loss and maintaining skin softness and elasticity. Ketoconazole and tolnaftate are antifungal medications that kill and stop the growth of the fungi by destroying its cell membrane, thereby treating your skin infection. Neomycin stops bacterial growth by inhibiting production of essential proteins needed by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
