ctions include such as fungal infections on the foot and between the toes (tinea pedis or athlete's foot) and infections on the skin of the groin (tinea cruris or jock itch), and infection or ringworm on the body (tinea corporis). This lotion consists of Beclomethasone and Clotrimazole as its main ingredients.

Try to follow the doctor’s directions for using the Candex B lotion. The dosage and duration of this lotion will be advised by the doctor.

Occasionally the patient may experience itching, burning sensation, irritation, and swelling, at the site of application, along with other side effects of Candex B lotion.
