This combination is indicated for the treatment of skin or mucosal infections, such as infected dermatitis or candidiasis. It is important to apply the medication as directed by your doctor to ensure the effectiveness of the treatment.

Side effects may include local irritation, redness, or a burning sensation at the application site. In rare cases, severe allergic reactions may occur, requiring immediate medical intervention.
