CANDID B CREAM

Description

CANDID B Cream is a topical medication that combines Clotrimazole (an antifungal agent) and Beclometasone (a corticosteroid). It is primarily used to treat skin infections caused by fungi, bacteria, or inflammation. CANDID B is effective for conditions where both fungal infections and inflammation need to be addressed simultaneously, such as in cases of fungal skin infections with associated redness, itching, and swelling.

Key Features:

• Clotrimazole (Antifungal): Clotrimazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal that works by disrupting the cell membrane of fungi, effectively stopping their growth and treating infections like athlete’s foot, ringworm, and jock itch.
• Beclometasone (Corticosteroid): Beclometasone helps reduce inflammation, redness, and itching caused by the infection. It is useful for treating inflammation and other symptoms associated with skin conditions.
• Dual Action: This combination provides relief from fungal infections and reduces the inflammatory response at the same time, offering fast and effective treatment for conditions involving both infection and skin irritation.
• Topical Application: The cream is easy to apply directly to the affected area and works locally, limiting systemic absorption and reducing the likelihood of side effects.

Indications:

• Fungal Skin Infections: Treatment of fungal infections such as athlete’s foot, ringworm, and candidiasis (yeast infections) on the skin.
• Inflammatory Skin Conditions: It is also used for inflammatory skin conditions like eczema or dermatitis, where there is associated fungal infection.
• Redness, Swelling, and Itching: To relieve the discomfort caused by fungal infections with associated inflammation, itching, and redness.

Dosage & Administration:

• How to Use: Apply a thin layer of CANDID B Cream to the affected area of the skin, usually twice daily (morning and evening), or as directed by your healthcare provider.
• Instructions: Wash and dry the affected area before applying the cream. Rub the cream gently into the skin until it is absorbed.
• Duration of Use: Typically used for a few weeks depending on the severity of the infection. Do not use it for prolonged periods without consulting a doctor to avoid potential side effects from the steroid component.
