    How does this medication work?

    This cream is a local anesthetic and antiarrhythmic that works by stabilizing the neuronal membrane by blocking the voltage-gated sodium channels. It inhibits depolarization of the postsynaptic nerve that prevents transmission of pain signals. Hydrocortisone acts as a corticosteroid used for reducing skin inflammation. Your body releases different chemicals in response to certain triggers. Hydrocortisone works by stopping the infection-fighting white blood cells from reaching the part of your body which is prone to infections. Phenylephrine is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist belonging to the phenethylamine class, which acts as a nasal decongestant. Calcium Dobesilate is a vasoprotective medicine which works on the walls of the small blood vessels and reduces their leakage and fragility. Zinc Oxide has astringent and antiseptic action.
