Canex T is a broad-spectrum antifungal cream designed to treat skin and nail infections, officially called dermatomycoses. This group of fungal infections are caused by dermophytes, a kind of mould that feeds on the keratin in your skin and nails. They can also be caused by other moulds and fungi.
These infections are located on your skin or nails, often causing redness, itching, scaling, and sometimes burning. Some examples include jock itch, athlete’s foot, and ringworm. When you apply Canex T to these areas, it helps to treat the infection by killing the fungi causing the problem.
The biggest benefit offered by Canex T is its ability to treat a wide range of common topical fungal infections thanks to its active ingredient, clotrimazole. Known for its antifungal properties, Canex T is able to eliminate the fungus causing the infection, helping to resolve it. But it also has several benefits.
Since Canex T is applied topically to the skin, it can come into contact with clothing. Thankfully, it is designed not to stain and can easily be washed off both clothing and skin. It is also odourless, making it a good, discreet option when treating infections. Finally, Canex T is available over the counter without a prescription. This makes it easy to access, especially since it is widely available in Dis-Chem and other leading independent pharmacies.
Like Canex T, Canex V is a clotrimazole-based anti-fungal cream. However, unlike Canex T, which is designed for a wide range of fungal skin infections, Canex V is specifically designed for the relief of symptoms associated with vaginal yeast infections.
Canex V is designed for the relief of vaginal itching, burning, and discharge caused by yeast infections. The active ingredient in Canex V helps to manage the overgrowth of the fungus Candida albicans, which is responsible for causing thrush.
Like Canex T, Canex V can be applied topically. However, Canex V is applied only to the vulva and most of the cream needs to be applied to the inside of the vagina using an applicator.
The active ingredient in Canex V is backed by more than 45 years of clinical use and is recommended by guidelines as a 1st line treatment option for thrush. In addition to providing relief from the symptoms of a yeast infection, like vaginal itching, burning, and discharge, Canex V can also be used to treat your partner to prevent re-infection.
There is nothing worse than letting a thrush treatment ruin your favourite pair of underwear with oily stains. Thankfully, Canex V does not stain your underwear, letting you step out with confidence. Furthermore, like Canex T, you can find Canex V over the counter at Dis-Chem and many leading independent pharmacies.
Understanding the difference between Canex V and Canex T is crucial for effective treatment. While Canex T is ideal for various skin and nail fungal infections, Canex V is specially designed to relieve the symptoms of vaginal thrush. Whether you’re looking for a solution for dermatomycoses or vaginal yeast infections, the Canex range offers convenient, accessible treatment options.
