Canesten® Bifonazole Cream for effective treatment of fungal skin and foot infections

Additional Product Details

Fungal infections of the skin and feet are among the most common skin conditions. Typical symptoms include itching, burning, redness, scaling, or small blisters. The spaces between the toes, skin folds, or other warm and moist skin areas are particularly often affected.

Canesten® Bifonazol Cream contains the effective active ingredient Bifonazol. This penetrates deep into the affected skin layers and combats fungal pathogens directly at the source. At the same time, symptoms such as itching and burning are quickly relieved.

The cream has a broad-spectrum effect against all relevant pathogens of skin and athlete's foot and is also suitable for the treatment of mixed infections.

Since the cream only needs to be applied once a day and is water-repellent after absorption, it can be easily integrated into daily life.

• Fungal infections between the toes
• Skin fungus on hands and body
