Uses of Candi Cream

Benefits of Candi Cream

Treatment of Fungal skin infections
Candi Cream is an antifungal medicine. It is used to treat skin infections caused by fungi. These include athlete’s foot, ringworm, vaginal thrush, and sweat rash. It works by killing and stopping the growth of fungi, thereby clearing the infection and relieving the symptoms. You should use this medicine for as long as it is prescribed, even if your symptoms disappear, otherwise they may come back. Depending on the type of infection you are treating, this may be several weeks. Even after your skin is completely cured, you may have to apply the cream occasionally to prevent the symptoms from returning.

Side effects of Candi Cream

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
Common side effects of Candi
  • Skin peeling
  • Blisters on skin
  • Dry skin
  • Application site reactions (burning, irritation, itching and redness)

How to use Candi Cream

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

How Candi Cream works

Candi Cream is a combination of two medicines: Fluocinolone acetonide and Miconazole, which treats skin infections. Fluocinolone acetonide is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Miconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi on the skin by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.

Frequently asked questions

Candi Cream is used to treat skin infections which may appear on the feet (Athlete’s foot), in the groin area (jock itch), or between skin folds (sweat rash infected with a yeast infection “thrush”). It is also used for candida infections of the skin and nails. It rapidly relieves the itching caused due to these fungal infections.
No, Candi Cream is not a steroid cream. It is an antifungal medicine that belongs to the imidazole class of medicines. It works by killing the fungi or by preventing the growth of fungi that cause infection.
The common side effects are application site burning, redness, and itching. The application site may also develop some uncommon side effects such as discomfort, dryness, bleeding, severe allergic reactions, urticaria or hives, rash, skin exfoliation, sticky skin, prickling sensation, or inflammation.
It is recommended that you use a mild steroid ointment like hydrocortisone cream/ointment in the morning and use Candi Cream in the evening. You can then stop using the steroid cream gradually over 2-3 weeks. But, if you have used a potent corticosteroid for seborrheic dermatitis, maintain at least a gap of 2 weeks before you apply Candi Cream to prevent skin sensitization.
Wash the affected area thoroughly with water and then dry it. Wash your hands carefully (until and unless your hands are also affected) after applying Candi Cream. This will prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of the body or other people.
You should use Candi Cream for as long as advised by your doctor. Generally, it is to be used for 2-4 weeks for jock itch and sweat rash and 2-6 weeks for Athlete’s foot. Do not stop using it even if your symptoms have disappeared because the infection may reappear if not properly treated.
If you forget to use Candi Cream, do not worry and continue using Candi Cream as soon as you remember. However, if you are not sure and have any other doubts, please consult your doctor.
