Same salt, different brands:

Most substitutes contain the same active ingredient - CLOBETASOL-0.05%W/W + CLOTRIMAZOLE-1%W/W + FUSIDIC ACID-2%W/W, but the fillers, coating, or manufacturing quality may vary slightly.

Consult your doctor first:

Even if the salt is the same, your doctor can confirm if the substitute is right for your condition, dosage, and health history.

Watch out for allergies or reactions:

Some people may react differently to certain brands due to inactive ingredients. If you notice any side effects, inform your doctor immediately.

Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.

Uses

Skin infections, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, tinea versicolor, lichen planus, ringworm, athlete's foot and jock itch.

Medicinal Benefits

Trikorium Cream treats various skin infections and is a combination of three medicines: Clobetasol, Clotrimazole, and Fusidic acid. Clobetasol is a corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory, antipruritic and vasoconstrictive properties. It blocks the production of chemical mediators of inflammation that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. It works by relieving inflammation and itching caused by plaque psoriasis and other skin conditions. Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication that stops fungi's growth by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. Fusidic acid is an antibacterial/antibiotic that prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. It is used to treat infections like dermatitis, spots, cuts, grazes, impetigo (weeping, crusty and swollen patch of skin) and folliculitis (inflammation of one or more hair follicles).
