About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Itchaway Cream is a topical formulation combining Ciprofloxacin (1% w/w), Metronidazole (1% w/w), Terbinafine (1% w/w), and Clobetasol (0.05% w/w), designed for the effective management of mixed dermatological infections accompanied by inflammation and pruritus. Ciprofloxacin, a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic, targets gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase, thereby preventing bacterial replication. Metronidazole, an antiprotozoal and antibacterial agent, is particularly effective against anaerobic bacteria and certain protozoa by disrupting DNA synthesis. Terbinafine, an allylamine antifungal, inhibits squalene epoxidase, leading to ergosterol depletion and fungal cell membrane disruption, making it effective against dermatophytes and other fungal pathogens. Clobetasol propionate, a potent corticosteroid, exerts anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, and vasoconstrictive effects by modulating inflammatory mediators and immune responses. The combination of these agents in Itchaway Cream provides a broad-spectrum antimicrobial effect alongside rapid symptomatic relief from inflammation and itching, making it suitable for complex infections involving bacterial, protozoal, and fungal etiologies with associated dermatitis. It is intended for topical use only and should be applied as directed by a healthcare professional, avoiding prolonged use to minimize potential corticosteroid-related adverse effects.

About Ciprofloxacin
Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase, preventing DNA replication and cell division. Ciprofloxacin is effective in managing respiratory, urinary, and skin infections. In summary, Ciprofloxacin is crucial for treating bacterial infections.
How It Works
Ciprofloxacin inhibits DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, disrupting bacterial DNA replication and leading to cell death.
All Active Ingredients
Terbinafine
Terbinafine inhibits squalene epoxidase, disrupting ergosterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes.
Metronidazole
Metronidazole disrupts DNA synthesis in anaerobic bacteria and protozoa, leading to their death.
Clobetasol
Clobetasol binds to glucocorticoid receptors, inhibiting the transcription of pro-inflammatory genes and reducing inflammation.
