Candistat cream uses
{med_name} is used in the treatment of fungal skin infections.
How candistat cream works
Candistat Cream works by stopping the growth of fungi that cause skin infections. It does this by interfering with the production of a substance called ergosterol, which is essential for maintaining the fungal cell membrane. Without ergosterol, the fungal cells become weak, leaky, and eventually die. This helps clear up infections like athlete's foot, ringworm, and yeast infections, providing relief from itching, redness, and discomfort.
