PHARMACODYNAMICS
Bencovee
cream
contains
clotrimazole
which
is
an
imidazole
antifungal
agent
and
betamethasone
dipropionate,
a
glucocorticoid
exhibiting
the
general
properties
of
corticosteroids.
Clotrimazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent with activity
against Trichomones,
Staphylococci and Bacteroides.
Topical corticosteroids are effective in the treatment of a range of
dermatoses because of
their anti-inflammatory antipruritic and vasoconstrictive actions.
PHARMACOKINETICS
When applied topically clotrimazole penetrates the epidermis but there
is little if any
systemic absorption. Clotrimazole is metabolized in the liver to
inactive compounds and
excreted in the feces and urine.
Betamethasone
is
readily
absorbed
when
applied
topically.
Sufficient
amount
of
betamethasone may be absorbed to give systemic effect when applied
under occlusive
dressing or on broken skin. Betamethasone is mainly metabolized in
liver and excreted in
the urine.
