Canesten Topical Cream (active ingredient: clotrimazole) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Fungal Infections: Canesten Topical Cream is used for the treatment of various superficial fungal infections, including athlete’s foot (tinea pedis), jock itch (tinea cruris), and ringworm (tinea corporis).
  2. Yeast Infections: It is also indicated for the treatment of skin infections caused by Candida species, such as candidiasis.

Canesten Topical Cream belongs to a class of drugs known as imidazole antifungals, which work by inhibiting the growth of fungi and yeast, thereby alleviating infection and symptoms.
