Benefits of Candid TV Suspension
In Treatment of Fungal skin infections
Candid TV Suspension is a combination of two medicines. Clotrimazole helps in killing and stopping the growth of fungi, thereby clearing the infection and relieving the symptoms. Selenium is a mineral that rejuvenates the damaged skin and prevents formation of wrinkles. This enhances the healing process.
You should use this medicine for as long as it is prescribed, even if your symptoms disappear, otherwise they may come back. Depending on the type of infection you are treating, this may be several weeks. Even after your skin is completely cured, you may have to apply the cream occasionally to prevent the symptoms from returning.
