Canesten Hydrocortisone Cream 15g is a prescription-only treatment designed to relieve irritation and inflammation caused by fungal skin infections. It is often prescribed for conditions such as athlete\u2019s foot, sweat rash (intertrigo), fungal nappy rash, and infected thrush-related irritation. This dual-action formulation tackles both the underlying fungal cause and the inflammatory symptoms, helping skin to heal faster and more comfortably.<\/p>\n
Canesten Hydrocortisone contains two key active ingredients: clotrimazole and hydrocortisone. Clotrimazole is a broad-spectrum antifungal that kills fungi and yeasts on the skin, treating the root cause of infection. Hydrocortisone is a mild corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, redness, and itching caused by the immune system\u2019s response to infection or irritation. By combining these two ingredients, the cream treats both the cause and the uncomfortable symptoms in one convenient application.<\/p>\n
Canesten Hydrocortisone Cream for fungal infections offers a powerful combination of antifungal and anti-inflammatory effects in a single product. It is fast-acting, helping to relieve itchiness, burning, and redness within just a few applications. The cream is smooth, easy to apply, and well tolerated when used as directed. It is particularly effective for inflamed skin where fungal overgrowth is present or suspected. Prescribed by healthcare professionals across the UK, it\u2019s a trusted choice for short-term symptom relief and effective infection control.<\/p>\n
Canesten Hydrocortisone is intended for external use only. It should be applied sparingly to the affected area for up to 7 days unless otherwise instructed by a doctor. Do not use on the face, genitals, or broken skin. Avoid prolonged use, as this can lead to side effects such as skin thinning. Store the cream below 25\u00b0C in a dry place and keep out of reach of children. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice promptly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
