Candid Antifungal Powder 50 GM

Candid Antifungal Powder 50 GM is used for managing fungal skin infections caused by moisture and sweat accumulation. It contains Clotrimazole, an antifungal agent that works by inhibiting fungal growth, thereby providing relief from itching, redness, and irritation. The talc-based formula absorbs excess moisture, keeping the skin dry and reducing the likelihood of recurring infections. This powder is particularly useful for areas prone to fungal infections, such as the underarms, waistline, inner thighs, and feet. Regular application helps maintain skin comfort and hygiene.

• Clotrimazole I.P: 1% w/w: Clotrimazole interacts with fungal cell membranes and disrupts their structure, which helps manage fungal growth. It inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cells, leading to increased permeability and eventual breakdown of the fungal structure. This process helps manage skin discomfort by reducing the spread of fungal infections and limiting further irritation.
   
• Other Ingredients: Talc I.P. base q.s.

• Manages Fungal Infections: Clotrimazole disrupts fungal cell membranes, reducing the fungal presence on the skin. The formulation lowers symptoms such as itching and redness that arise from fungal colonisation. Talc, acting as a moisture absorber, creates an environment unfavourable for fungal growth.
   
• Relieves Itching, Redness, and Irritation: The active ingredient diminishes the discomfort associated with skin irritation through its antifungal properties. The reduction in inflammatory responses leads to a noticeable decrease in redness. The soothing formulation promotes a calmer skin appearance over time.
   
• Absorbs Sweat and Moisture: Talc in the formulation efficiently captures excess moisture on the skin. The dry surface discourages conditions that favour fungal proliferation. A balanced moisture level contributes to a more stable and comfortable skin environment.
   
• Eases Discomfort Caused by Excessive Sweating and Skin Friction: The powder reduces friction by maintaining a drier skin surface in areas prone to sweating. It creates a cool sensation that lessens the feeling of discomfort. The improved skin condition contributes to a more pleasant daily experience during hot weather.
   
• Maintains Healthy and Irritation-Free Skin: The formulation supports skin clarity by minimising the effects of excessive moisture during warmer months. A balanced environment on the skin results in a reduced incidence of irritation. Regular application contributes to a smoother, more comfortable skin texture.
   
• Relieves Prickly Heat: The product soothes areas affected by prickly heat by absorbing sweat and reducing the sensation of heat-induced discomfort. A cooler, drier surface on the skin minimises the appearance of heat rash symptoms. The overall effect is a more relaxed and comfortable skin feel in those regions.

• Clean and dry the affected area before application.
• Dust a thin layer of the powder over the affected area.
• Use as directed by a physician.
