How Does It Work?

• Candiderma + cream is a combination medicine containing beclomethasone, clotrimazole, and neomycin as active components.
• Beclomethasone is a steroid that acts by blocking the synthesis of a natural substance called prostaglandin responsible for itching, swelling, and redness.
• Clotrimazole works by inhibiting the formation of a fungal cell wall component which leads to altered permeability and prevention of growth of infection-causing fungus.
• Neomycin is an antibiotic agent which is used for treating various bacterial infections on the skin. It works by preventing the growth and multiplication of bacteria causing the infection.
• Collectively all these medicines work effectively by reducing the infection and inflammation of the skin.

Interactions with other medicines

• Candiderma + cream is meant for external application on the skin and thus is less likely to interact with other medicines taken orally.
• However, it may interact with other topically applied medicine. Discuss with your doctor if you are already on another topical medicine.
• Candiderma + cream can damage the surface of physical contraceptives. Thus an alternative contraceptive measure should be considered during the treatment and after 5 days of the treatment.
