How Clotrimazole and Betamethasone Dipropionate Works

Lotriderm is used to treat the skin infections caused by a fungus such as athlete’s foot (tinea pedis); jock itch (tinea cruris); ringworm (tinea corporis) Lotriderm contains two medicines, betamethasone dipropionate and clotrimazole. Clotrimazole interferes with the growth of the fungus that is causing your skin problem. Betamethasone dipropionate reduces the swelling, redness and itching and other discomfort of fungus infections. Do not cover the treated areas with a bandage, plaster or wrap of any kind. This can lead to serious side effects. The use of Lotriderm for longer than four weeks is not recommended
