Overview
Candid B Cream is a dual-action skin cream combining an antifungal, clotrimazole, with a mild corticosteroid, beclometasone, supplied here in the larger 30g tube. It treats fungal skin infections that are also red, itchy and inflamed: clotrimazole clears the fungus responsible for conditions such as ringworm, athlete's foot and jock itch, while beclometasone soothes the inflammation, redness and itching. This combination is particularly helpful in the early stages of treatment, easing uncomfortable symptoms quickly while the infection is cleared, with the bigger tube suited to larger areas or longer courses as advised.
Active ingredients: Clotrimazole 1% w/w and Beclometasone dipropionate 0.025% w/w.
Directions for Use
For external use only. Wash and dry the affected area gently, then apply a thin layer of cream and rub in lightly, usually twice a day (morning and evening) or as directed by your doctor. Wash your hands after applying, unless treating the hands. Continue for the full period advised. The steroid is generally only for short-term use, but the antifungal often needs to be continued for some time after symptoms clear to fully remove the infection. Do not use under airtight dressings unless advised.
Because it contains a steroid, do not use for longer than directed or on large areas, and avoid the face, eyes and skin folds unless your doctor advises, as prolonged steroid use can thin the skin. Not for use on the eyes or inside the mouth or nose, and avoid on broken or weeping skin unless directed. Do not use on infections such as cold sores, chickenpox or impetigo. Tell your doctor if pregnant or breastfeeding. Stop and seek advice if the condition worsens or does not improve. Store below 25C.
