Is Candid cream a steroid cream? Can it be used for treating candidiasis? Ive heard mixed things about its ingredients and Im a bit confused. Can someone clarify if it's safe to use for fungal infections?

Candid cream contains Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections like candidiasis. It is not a steroid cream. You can apply Candid cream topically to the affected area 2-3 times a day for effective treatment of candidiasis.
