Candivate Cream is used to treat various fungal and bacterial skin infections. It treats skin inflammation due to allergies or irritants, eczema (inflamed, itchy, cracked and rough skin patches), psoriasis (skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales), ringworm, athlete's foot (fungal infection between the toes), jock itch (fungal infection in the skin of the genitals, inner thighs and buttocks), candidiasis (yeast infection), insect bites, and stings. It stops the growth of fungi and bacteria. Also, it blocks prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers), which makes the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. It may cause common side effects such as erythema (redness of the skin), stinging, blistering, peeling, pruritus (irritation of the skin causing an urge to scratch), itching, dryness and burning sensation at the application site.

About Candivate Cream
Candivate Cream is used to treat various fungal and bacterial skin infections. It treats skin inflammation due to allergies or irritants, eczema (inflamed, itchy, cracked and rough skin patches), psoriasis (skin cells multiply rapidly to form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales), ringworm, athlete’s foot (fungal infection between the toes), jock itch (fungal infection in the skin of the genitals, inner thighs and buttocks), candidiasis (yeast infection), insect bites, and stings.
Candivate Cream is composed of three medicines: Clotrimazole (antifungal), Neomycin (antibiotic) and Beclometasone (steroid). Clotrimazole is an antifungal medication that stops the growth of fungi by causing damage and leakage to the fungal cell membrane. Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic used in treating bacterial and fungal infections of the skin. It prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. On the other hand, Beclometasone is a corticosteroid and blocks prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy.
Candivate Cream is for topical (for skin) use only. If the medicine gets into your eyes, nose or mouth, rinse with cold water. Common side effects of Candivate Cream include erythema (redness of the skin), stinging, blistering, peeling, pruritus (irritation of the skin causing an urge to scratch), itching, dryness and burning sensation at the application site. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please consult your doctor.
Do not use topical Candivate Cream on open wounds, blisters and lesions. Candivate Cream is not for oral, ophthalmic (eye) or intravaginal use. Do not put a dressing or bandage on the affected area since it increases the risk of side effects. Please check with your doctor before using Candivate Cream, if you have liver or kidney diseases. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Candivate Cream.

When used as directed by the doctor, Candivate Cream is generally safe. However, like all medications, it might cause negative effects and interact with other medications. To reduce your risk, follow your doctor's instructions, report any pre-existing or present medical issues, and share your drug history. Please notify your healthcare practitioner of any allergies or concerns.
Apply a thin layer of cream with clean and dry hands on the skin's affected areas. You can also apply it with a piece of clean cotton wool or gauze swab on the skin. Gently rub the medicine into the skin until it is disappeared. Wash your hands before and after applying the cream on the affected areas unless the treatment is for hands.
Don't take more than the recommended dose of Candivate Cream, as overusing it may not provide additional relief and instead increases the risk of adverse effects such as skin thinning, changes in skin colour, excessive hair growth, and secondary infections. Follow your doctor's instructions regarding dose and duration for optimal results without side effects.
Do not use Candivate Cream on open wounds, blisters, and lesions. Moreover, Candivate Cream is not intended for oral, ophthalmic (eye), or intravaginal use.
