Antifungal cream is used in the treatment of fungal infections and relieves itching, redness and irritation in the affected skin. Over-the-counter antifungals are used for several types of fungal skin infections, including forms of ringworm like athlete’s foot (tinea pedis), jock itch (tinea crusis) and other external yeast and nail infections. The best treatment for you will depend on where the infection is located and personal preference for a cream, powder or ointment. Incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD) should be treated only with an antifungal barrier cream that is specifically designed for this sensitive area, such as Coloplast Baza antifungal cream. You can help clear the infection more quickly by frequently washing hands before and after using a topical antifungal as well as keeping the affected area clean and dry.

Perineal barrier cream products are used to treat and prevent skin irritation related to incontinence. Barrier creams form a protective moisture barrier over the skin that seals out excess moisture while maintaining an optimal healing environment. Excess moisture can cause the skin to become macerated and damaged from even light friction or pressure. Using an anti-fungal barrier cream or ointment can prevent an incontinence rash or treat existing perineal dermatitis.
