Does anyone know where one can buy Canistan cream (or something similar)? I believe it is a hydrocortizone cream used to treat varous skin rashes. Thanks for any help.

Take care,

You should be able to find it at most pharmacies.

"Canesten" is used to treat thrush- Not rashes.

If you have thrush- Get canesten at the pharmacy and don't engage in sexual intercourse.

If your partner has thrush, have them treated too. Women can get an injecter model- A one time treatment. Make sure the area is clean and dry- The best time is before bed.

For men, the same applies, but don't inject anything- Just rub it on. In all cases, outside of the one hit wonder pack they have- A seven day course is desirable. Don't put the cream on through the day. Once at night is the way to go.

You shouldn't engage in sexual intercourse while undergoing treatment.

If you need a hydro-court cream, ask for it- Of course in a Konglish accent and you'll get hy-do-lo-cor-tu.

Or something.

Any 약국. 5000w on average, which is reasonable.

Get baby powder too to keep you drier.

I always suffer from this crap in early summer and I absolutely hate it. Sweat/friction rashes turn into fungal/thrush infections very rapidly and it's at best uncomfortable and at worst intolerably painful.

I thought Canesten was a prescription only drug?

Being not terribly bright I only noticed the author and thought that it was written today. That would have been ridiculous timing.

If I had been in the last 30 minutes I would have been:
