Composition of Gent-B Cream

Uses of Gent-B Cream
- Bacterial skin infections with inflammation
- Infected eczema
- Dermatitis
- Impetiginized lesions
- Infected insect bites
- Minor infected rashes as advised by doctor
Benefits of Gent-B Cream
- In Bacterial infection
- Gent-B treats the bacterial infection it was prescribed for by killing the bacteria or stopping them multiplying. Finishing the course makes sure the infection does not return.
- In Gut infection
- Gent-B clears the bacteria or other organisms causing diarrhoea, abdominal pain and bloating, so the gut settles.
- In Skin infection
- Gent-B treats infected skin and soft tissue, bringing down redness, swelling and pain.
- In Dental infection
- Gent-B treats infections of the teeth and gums, easing the pain and swelling until your dentist can deal with the cause.
- In Asthma
- Gent-B opens the airways or calms the inflammation inside them, depending on its type, so breathing is easier and attacks are fewer. Delivered straight into the lungs, it works where it is needed with very little reaching the rest of the body.
- In Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- Gent-B relaxes the airways so that air moves in and out more easily, reducing breathlessness and letting you walk further and do more before you have to stop.
How Gent-B Cream works
Gentamicin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that kills susceptible bacteria by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. Beclomethasone is a corticosteroid that reduces redness, swelling and itching by suppressing inflammatory mediators in the skin.
How to take Gent-B Cream
For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer 1–2 times daily or as prescribed. Use for the shortest duration needed; avoid covering with tight occlusive dressings unless advised. Wash hands after application and avoid contact with eyes, mouth and genital areas.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, severe loose motions and nerve symptoms. It can cause a racing heart, marked tremor, headache and a fall in blood potassium. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
