Lotriderm is a topical medication that combines two active ingredients: clotrimazole and betamethasone dipropionate. Clotrimazole is an antifungal agent that works by inhibiting the growth of various types of fungi, effectively treating fungal infections of the skin. Betamethasone dipropionate is a potent corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, itching, and redness associated with skin conditions. Together, these ingredients make Lotriderm an effective treatment for certain fungal skin infections that are accompanied by inflammatory symptoms. It is commonly prescribed for conditions like athlete's foot, jock itch, and certain types of dermatitis where a fungal infection is also present. Lotriderm is typically applied to the affected area as directed by a healthcare provider, and its use should be limited to the prescribed duration to avoid potential side effects.
