Dermajust 5 cream 15g is a powerful multi-action skin treatment cream formulated to address various skin conditions. This cream combines the benefits of five active ingredients: Clioquinol (Iodochlorhydroxyquin), Clobetasol, Ketoconazole, Neomycin, and Tolnaftate. It is primarily used for managing mixed skin infections, stubborn rashes, and inflammation accompanied by itching.
The unique blend of ingredients in Dermajust 5 cream 15g targets both fungal and bacterial infections while reducing inflammation. Clioquinol, Ketoconazole, and Tolnaftate are potent antifungals that help combat common fungal infections like ringworm, jock itch, and athlete's foot. Neomycin acts as an antibacterial agent, treating and preventing bacterial growth on the skin. Furthermore, Clobetasol, a corticosteroid, effectively reduces redness, swelling, itching, and irritation often associated with dermatitis, eczema, and allergic skin reactions. This combination provides comprehensive relief and helps clear complex skin issues.
To use Dermajust 5 cream 15g, apply a thin layer to the affected skin area once or twice daily, or as directed by your doctor. It is generally recommended for short-term use due to the corticosteroid component. Avoid applying this cream on the face or other sensitive areas unless specifically advised by a healthcare professional. If irritation worsens or persists, discontinue use and consult your doctor. This product is not suitable for deep wounds or viral infections.
Uses:
- Fungal Skin Infections: Particularly effective for tinea infections such as ringworm (Tinea corporis), jock itch (Tinea cruris), and athlete's foot (Tinea pedis), especially when accompanied by significant inflammation.
- Mixed Skin Infections: Used in cases where both bacterial and fungal pathogens are contributing to the skin condition.
- Inflammatory Dermatoses: Helps manage conditions like eczema and dermatitis that are complicated by secondary bacterial or fungal infections, and present with symptoms such as redness, swelling, and severe itching.
- Stubborn Rashes: Useful for various stubborn rashes that have an inflammatory component and may be infected.
- Itching and Irritation: Provides relief from severe itching, burning, and irritation associated with the aforementioned skin conditions.
Directions of Use
To ensure effective and safe use of Dermajust 5 cream 15g, follow these steps:
- Clean the Area: Gently wash the affected skin area with mild soap and water, then pat it dry thoroughly before applying the cream.
- Apply Thin Layer: Squeeze a small amount of Dermajust 5 cream 15g onto your fingertip. Apply a very thin layer evenly over the affected skin, just enough to cover the area.

- Dosage Frequency: Apply the cream usually 1-2 times daily, or precisely as directed by your healthcare professional.
- Duration of Use: Use this medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor. It is typically recommended for short-term use, especially due to the corticosteroid content.

- Avoid Contact: Do not apply the cream near your eyes, nose, mouth, or other mucous membranes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
- Do Not Cover: Unless specifically instructed by your doctor, do not cover the treated area with bandages, plastic wrap, or waterproof dressings, as this can increase the absorption of the medicine and risk of side effects.
