Buy Lotriderm
Lotriderm (betamethasone dipropionate and clotrimazole) 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 belongs to the group of medications called antifungals and it interferes with the growth of the fungus that is causing your skin problem. Betamethasone dipropionate belongs to the group of medications called corticosteroids and it reduces the inflammation.
