Candid-B Cream is used for managing the following conditions:

• Tackling fungal skin infections that involve inflammation
• Addressing tinea infections (ringworm), caused by different types of fungi like Trichophyton, Microsporum, and Epidermophyton
• Managing skin infections due to Candida albicans, a type of yeast
• Helping in the management of pityriasis (tinea) versicolor, a condition caused by Malassezia furfur fungus

Here are some simple instructions to follow while using Candid-B Cream:

• Always ensure that the affected skin area is clean and dry before application.
• Gently massage a thin layer of the cream into the affected and surrounding skin areas.
• Apply this medicine twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening.
• For specific advice on usage and duration, consult your doctor.

Candid-B Cream is applied topically.

Candid-B Cream consists of two main active ingredients:

• Clotrimazole (1%): This broad-spectrum antifungal agent helps control fungal growth. It alters the structure of the fungal cell membrane by inhibiting the production of ergosterol, which is a key component of the membrane. This disruption leads to leakage of cellular contents, thereby inhibiting fungal growth.
• Beclomethasone Dipropionate (0.025%): This potent corticosteroid works on your body by reducing inflammation, redness, and itching of the skin. It does this by binding to specific receptors inside your cells and altering the function of genes responsible for producing an inflammatory response.

This dual action mechanism allows Candid-B Cream to manage fungal infections effectively while also reducing inflammation associated with these conditions.

• Store Candid-B Cream in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays between 15°C and 30°C.
• Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.
• Ensure the tube is sealed tightly after each use.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Since Candid-B Cream is used to manage fungal skin infections, try to keep your skin clean and dry to prevent the growth of fungi. Remember to dry your skin properly after a bath or washing your hands.
• It's advisable to wear breathable fabrics like cotton, as they can help reduce sweating. Excessive moisture can create an environment conducive for fungal growth. Always consult your doctor for any specific diet or lifestyle changes that may aid in managing your condition.
