Canpex-B Lotion

Canpex-B Lotion is a topical medication that combines Beclometasone (0.025% w/v), a corticosteroid, and Clotrimazole (1% w/v), an antifungal agent. This combination works effectively to treat skin conditions that involve both fungal infections and inflammation. By reducing inflammation, redness, and itching while also eliminating fungal infections, Canpex-B Lotion provides fast relief and supports the healing of the affected skin.

Uses of Canpex-B Lotion

Canpex-B Lotion is used to treat the following skin conditions:

• Fungal skin infections such as athlete's foot, ringworm, and jock itch
• Inflammatory skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis
• Relieves symptoms of itching, redness, and swelling caused by fungal infections and other skin irritations

How Canpex-B Lotion Works

Canpex-B Lotion combines the anti-inflammatory action of Beclometasone with the antifungal effect of Clotrimazole. Beclometasone reduces inflammation, swelling, and itching, while Clotrimazole targets and kills the fungi causing the infection. Together, they work to relieve symptoms and treat both the inflammatory and fungal aspects of the condition.

• Non-greasy, fast-absorbing formula that leaves the skin feeling smooth and hydrated
• Prevents the spread of fungal infections to other areas of the skin
