Candacort 1% Clotrimazole & Hydrocortisone Cream - 15g Tube
Fungal skin infections in tropical environments are frequently complicated by intense inflammatory swelling and unbearable itching. Candacort Cream provides a powerful dual-action dermatological treatment. By combining broad-spectrum Clotrimazole to eradicate fungi with Hydrocortisone to calm severe redness and itching, this cream restores comfort to compromised skin, particularly in areas like the groin or between toes where sweat exacerbates rashes.
How to Use / Operate
Cleanse and thoroughly dry the affected area. Apply a thin layer of cream gently 2 times daily as directed by your physician or pharmacist. Wash hands immediately after application.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Candacort Cream used for?
It is indicated for the treatment of inflammatory fungal infections, infected eczema, sweat rashes, and athlete's foot accompanied by severe itching.
How long should I use this cream?
Treatment should generally not exceed 7 to 14 days without direct clinical re-evaluation due to the topical steroid component. Once inflammation subsides, switch to a plain antifungal cream.
Important Clinical Considerations
For external topical use only. Do not apply near the eyes or onto open, deep wounds. Extended use of topical corticosteroids on thin skin areas may lead to localized skin thinning or striae.
