How effective is GenCloben Gentamicin for skincare?

Product Question: Gencloben (Gentamicin + Betamethasone + Clotrimazole)?

Has anyone come across this cream before? My parents got it for me, and after using it, I’ve noticed improvement in my acne and a reduction in dark spots. However, it seems to be lightening my skin, and I already have significant discoloration on my face.

It’s a mix of topical steroids, antibiotics, and antifungal agents, and in my country, it’s only available with a doctor’s prescription.

The cream has a negative reputation here, especially among doctors, as it’s often seen as “the go-to solution when general practitioners are unsure of the diagnosis, since it covers three different drug classes.”

It’s typically prescribed for treating infected eczema on the body and limbs.

I wouldn’t recommend using it on the face for eczema, and definitely not for acne.

I’ve been using it for my acne, and it’s definitely improved. However, I’m not sure about the skin discoloration, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor to check for any allergies or other issues.
