Clobetasol belongs to corticosteroids. It works as an anti-inflammatory by inhibiting the metabolism of arachidonic acid by inhibiting phospholipase A2 thus inhibits the production of inflammatory mediators like prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Clotrimazole has both fungistatic and fungicidal actions. It binds to phospholipids in the fungal cell membrane and alters its permeability. Neomycin is an Aminoglycosides. It binds itself to 30S-subunit proteins and also 16S rRNA. It attaches irreversibly to a total of four nucleotides of 16S rRNA and one protein S12 amino acid. This causes interference when it comes to decoding the site.

Whenever you take more than one medicine, or mix it with certain foods or beverages, you"re at risk of a drug interaction.
