CANESTEN Plus Clotrimazole and Hydrocortisone Cream is a broad spectrum anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory cream.

It contains two active ingredients; clotrimazole and hydrocortisone. Clotrimazole is an antifungal which treats the root cause of fungal skin infections. Hydrocortisone is a mild topical steroid which reduces the swelling, redness and itching associated with inflammation of the skin.

Used twice daily, this 2 in 1 action enables rapid relief from the symptoms of athlete’s foot, jock itch & fungal nappy rash.

Use:

Apply thinly and evenly with gentle rubbing to the affected area twice daily.

Ingredients:

CANESTEN PLUS Clotrimazole and Hydrocortisone Cream contains 10 mg/g of clotrimazole and 11.2 mg/g of hydrocortisone acetate (equivalent to 10 mg/g hydrocortisone) as active ingredients.

Important Notes:

Because of its corticosteroid content, CANESTEN PLUS cream should not be applied to large areas (more than 10% of the body surface) and/or under occlusive dressings (such as nappies and bandages) because this may increase absorption.

CANESTEN PLUS cream should not be used:

• if you have hypersensitivity to the active substances, 
• on broken skin
• for diseases affecting the skin (such as acne, rosacea, perioral dermatitis, lues, tuberculosis, etc.)
• in or near the eyes
• for viral skin diseases (e.g. herpes simplex, chicken pox, etc.)
