Candid Cream is a topical medicine, which means it is applied externally on the skin and should not be taken orally or internally.

Candid Cream contains clotrimazole, an active ingredient known for its antifungal properties.

• Clotrimazole targets the cell membranes of fungi, disrupting their structure and preventing their growth.
• It interferes with the production of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes.
• By inhibiting ergosterol synthesis, clotrimazole weakens the fungal cells and makes them more susceptible to destruction.
• This leads to a decrease in fungal activity and helps alleviate symptoms associated with skin infections caused by fungi.

• Store Candid Cream at a temperature below 25°C. Do not freeze it.
