SKEEN CRM is a Schedule H1 antibiotic.

SKEEN CRM is composed of: CLIOQUINOL (10.0 MG), TOLNAFTATE (10.0 MG), GENTAMICIN (1.0 MG), BETAMETHASONE (0.6 MG)

Clioquinol (Iodochlorhydroxyquin) is used in the treatmentof skin infections, fungal infections  and bacterial infections of external ear. Clioquinol belongs to a category of drugs called ashydroxyquinoline antifungal agents. It acts by interacting with DNA synthesis thus killing the fungi that are responsible for causing the infection. It may be combined with a steroid (to reduce inflammation) or an antibacterial agent (to reduce bacterial infection).Clioquinol and hydrocortisone is a combinedanti-infective and cortisone-like medicine. Clioquinol and hydrocortisone topical preparation is used to treat infections of the skin and to help provide relief from the redness, itching, and discomfort of many skin problems

Tolnaftate is an antifungal medication that fights infections caused by fungus.Tolnaftate is also used with other antifungals to treat infections of the nails, scalp, palms, and soles of the feet. It blocks the fungal growth that cause skin infections.


Gentamicin is a prescription medication used to treat certain serious infections that are caused by bacteria such as meningitis (infection of the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord) and infections of the blood, abdomen (stomach area), lungs, skin, bones, joints, and urinary tract. Gentamicin can be used topically to treat eye and skin infections. Gentamicin can cause kidney damage and hearing loss. Patients should be closely monitored while receiving gentamicin. Gentamicin belongs to a group of drugs called aminoglycoside antibiotics. Gentamicin can also cause dizziness. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how gentamicin affects you.
Betamethasone is a steroid which works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies. Betamethasone is used in the treatment of allergy symptoms.
