This topical medication contains an antifungal from the imidazole family.
It is used in the treatment of certain diseases of the skin, nails and mucous membranes due to microscopic fungi (mycoses) : candidiasis, pityriasis versicolor, dermatophytia ...
Local antifungal (drug active against fungi), specifically effective (theoretically) against Candida albicans and on bacteria highlighted by Gram + staining.
Mycoses: Understanding
Their multiplication on the skin or on the mucous membranes generally results from a modification of the local balance by an external cause (irritation, maceration ...) or internal (decrease in immunity, diabetes ...).
Most often, fungal infections are not serious, but they are contagious, often unpleasant and above all stubborn, requiring prolonged treatment to avoid a recurrence.

In case of candidiasis, avoid using acid soaps: they promote the multiplication of fungi.
Excessive sweating contributes to the development of lesions due to fungi. The wearing of natural fiber socks (cotton, wool) is recommended. The same pair of shoes should not be worn two days in a row.
