If you are unsure whether you have one of these fungal skin infections, seek the advice of your doctor or pharmacist. The active substances in Canesten Hydrocortisone are clotrimazole and hydrocortisone. Clotrimazole belongs to a group of medicines called imidazoles, which destroy the fungi and some bacteria that cause skin infections. Hydrocortisone is a mild steroid which reduces swelling, redness and itching associated with inflammation of the skin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf Canesten Hydrocortisone has been prescribed for you by your doctor, follow any instructions he\/she may have given you.
