Product Introduction

Candid Mouth Paint contains Clotrimazole, an antifungal agent that treats fungal infections of the mouth such as oral candidiasis (thrush). It works by binding to the mucosal surfaces of the mouth and slowly releasing the medication, allowing it to kill the fungi by destroying their cell membranes.
For effective results, apply directly to the affected area inside the mouth and avoid eating, drinking, or smoking for at least 30 minutes after application.

Key Benefits

🌟 Relieves symptoms of oral thrush and fungal mouth infections
🌟 Destroys fungal cell walls, preventing further growth
🌟 Safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding with medical guidance
🌟 Minimal side effects, generally well tolerated

How It Works

Clotrimazole belongs to a class of antifungal agents that inhibit ergosterol synthesis, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. By disrupting this process, it damages fungal cells, leading to their death and eliminating the infection.
