About Canesten Cream
Canesten Cream belongs to the class of anti-fungal medications known as imidazoles, primarily used to treat fungal skin infections such as athlete's foot, ringworm, fungal nappy rash, fungal sweat rash and thrush. A fungal infection, also known as mycosis, is a skin infection caused by fungus.
Canesten Cream comprises clotrimazole, which works by destroying the fungus that causes the infection. Canesten Cream damages the fungal cell membrane and causes the components to leak out, thus killing the fungus and curing the infection.
In some cases, Canesten Cream may cause itching, redness, dryness, burning and stinging sensation. The majority of these side effects of Canesten Cream eventually fade away over time without the need for medical intervention. Consult your doctor if any side effects worsen or persist.
Consult your doctor if you are a pregnant or nursing mother. Do not use any other topical medications simultaneously along with Canesten Cream without a doctor's recommendation. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines you are taking to rule out any side effects.
