Skin Infection Cream Information

What is Skin Infection Cream?

Skin Infection Cream is an effective prescription-only medicine that is used to treat infected eczema, dermatitis and other infected skin conditions.

Skin Infection Cream is a topical treatment, which means you apply it to the affected area. It helps provide relief from symptoms and prevents the condition from getting worse.

Skin Infection Cream is only available on prescription. You will need a doctor (such as a member of our online doctor service team) or pharmacist to prescribe it for you after a medical consultation.

Skin Infection Cream can be taken by most adults — this includes pregnant and breastfeeding women.

You can buy Skin Infection Cream (for eczema that’s infected and other skin infections) online at The Independent Pharmacy by completing an online consultation for our medical team to review.

What does Skin Infection Cream cream do?

Skin Infection Cream can be used to treat a number of bacterial infections, such as infected areas of dermatitis or eczema.

Skin Infection Cream side effects

Like all medicines, Skin Infection Cream may cause side effects.

Not everyone will experience side effects when they use Skin Infection Cream — it is an extremely safe and effective medication, and side effects are unusual. Most people will have a very positive experience with no noticeable side effects during their course of treatment

These side effects are categorised as uncommon, only affecting up to one in 100 people.

If you are concerned about these Skin Infection Cream side effects at all, or if the product affects you in any other way, stop using it and speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
