Product Overview
About CANESTEN EXTERNAL CREAM
CANESTEN EXTERNAL CREAM is a topical antifungal medication used to treat various fungal infections. It contains the active ingredient CLOTRIMAZOLE, which is effective against a wide range of fungi that cause skin infections. CANESTEN EXTERNAL CREAM is applied directly to the affected area of the skin to provide relief from symptoms such as itching, redness, and cracking.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of athlete's foot, a fungal infection that affects the feet
- Relief from jock itch, a fungal infection that causes itching and redness in the groin area
- Treatment of ringworm, a fungal infection that causes a ring-shaped rash on the skin
Active Ingredient & Action
CLOTRIMAZOLE works by inhibiting the growth of fungi that cause infections. It does this by interfering with the production of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes. Without ergosterol, the fungal cells are unable to function properly, leading to their death and the clearance of the infection.
