Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured. Therefore, completing the full course of treatment would be suggested even if you feel better.

Candid Lotion 30 ml is effective against Trichophyton species which cause athlete’s foot, ringworm infection, and jock itch (fungal infection of the skin in the groin or buttocks). Additionally, it works well against yeast known as Candida which commonly causes vaginal thrush (infection caused by an overgrowth of yeast called Candida albicans).
The symptoms of skin infection, such as soreness or itching, should improve within a few days of using Candid Lotion 30 ml . However, the signs such as scaling and redness may take longer to disappear. Even if you feel better do not stop using Candid Lotion 30 ml before the duration advised by your doctor.
You are advised to use Candid Lotion 30 ml for as long as it is recommended by your doctor. The type of infection determines the duration of treatment. In general, for tinea infection, the treatment is continued for 1 month and for candida infection, at least for 15 days. Do not stop using Candid Lotion 30 ml on your own even if you feel better as the infection may relapse as it takes some time to kill the fungus.
Candid Lotion 30 ml is safe for children only if used as advised by the doctor. Although minor side effects may occur, they are often not troublesome. However, if your child develops redness, burning sensation, and itching (which is severe in nature), stop using Candid Lotion 30 ml and consult your doctor.
Avoid rubbing the affected areas too much and keep them clean and dry. Although, itching may want you to scratch, avoid scratching as it will damage the skin’s surface and cause the infection to spread further. Avoid sharing towels, bath mats, etc. with other people as you could spread the infection to them.
