This review examines Canesten Clotrimazole Athlete’s Foot Cream which its manufacturer claims to be a powerful treatment for the symptoms and cause of Athlete’s foot. This product contains an ingredient which is said to eliminate the growth of the fungus responsible for causing athlete’s foot and its irritating symptoms (red, cracked skin on the feet, itching heels and scaling).
Ingredients
Primary Ingredient:
- Clotrimazole (0.18 oz)
Clotrimazole is an azole antifungal which may fight off Tinea Pedis, which is the species of fungus that causes the symptoms which are experienced when Athlete’s foot infects the skin of the feet.
Secondary Ingredient:
- Benzyl Alcohol (1%)
Benzyl alcohol which works as a preservative in the cream, and makes up for only 1% of the substance which makes up the cream. The manufacturer does unfortunately not supply any information regarding any other ingredients which are utilized in the blend
This causes us to wonder what makes up the rest of the formula? Is the manufacturer trying to hide something and why do they not include the most renowned antifungal (Undecylenic Acid) in this topical cream?
Dosage
Clean and thoroughly dry the area to be treated. Apply this medication to the affected skin, usually twice or three times a day or as directed by your doctor. Continue application for up to two weeks after the symptoms are no longer experienced. We suggest that should conditions worsen or not improve over a period of 3 weeks, that you seek attention from a qualified medical practitioner.

The manufacturer allows for this product to be purchased online through third-party retailers and at various pharmacies which stock the product. Canesten Clotrimazole Athlete’s Foot Cream is sold in a 1.8 oz tube for $13.95
Guarantee
We have failed to find any return policy or guarantee relating to this product, although we have conducted extensive research, we have failed to find any return policy or guarantee relating to this product. We did notice that there is a telephone number supplied as per the manufacturer’s website which is dedicated to customer care. We are certainly disappointed by this as most leading brands offer a 365-day 100% guarantee.
Canesten Clotrimazole Athlete’s Foot Cream Review – Conclusion
In this review of Canesten Clotrimazole Athlete’s Foot Cream to find that this product may be a good treatment in the form of an applicable cream for athlete’s foot- infected feet, and we also like that the manufacturer has a user-friendly website. We do also need to draw attention to the fact that although the website was pleasant to use, it did not supply any information contributing to the ingredients which make up the rest of the product, which leads us to believe that the manufacturer is hiding something about what else is used in the formulation. Furthermore, there is a way more powerful antifungal which is Undecylenic Acid, which could have been used in the blend. The lack of a guarantee or return policy is the final contributing factor as to why we cannot recommend this product to anyone.
