What it is used for
This cream is used for fungal skin infections that are also very red, inflamed and itchy, such as ringworm (tinea) of the body or groin, athlete's foot and yeast (candida) infections of the skin folds. The antifungal treats the infection while the steroid calms the inflammation. It is meant for short-term use only, as your doctor advises.
How it works
Econazole damages the outer layer of fungi and yeasts so they cannot grow. Triamcinolone is a corticosteroid that reduces redness, swelling and itching.

Talk to a doctor or pharmacist first
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Parents using it on a baby or young child, especially in the nappy area
- Anyone planning to use it on the face, groin, armpits or a large area of skin
- People with cold sores, chickenpox or other viral skin infections, acne or rosacea

Warnings
- Use it only for as long as your doctor advises. Long or repeated use of steroid-containing antifungal creams can make fungal infections spread and harder to treat.
- Do not use it in or near the eyes, and do not cover it with tight or airtight dressings unless told to.
- Stop and see your doctor if the rash spreads, gets worse or has not improved as expected.
Questions people ask
Why should steroid-containing antifungal creams not be used for long?
The steroid calms itching quickly, but it also weakens the skin's defences. With long use, the fungus can spread, the rash can change its look, and the infection can become much harder to treat. Skin thinning can also occur.
Can I use this cream on my face?
Facial skin is thin and more easily damaged by steroids. Only use it on the face if your doctor has specifically told you to, and for as short a time as possible.
What if the ringworm comes back after stopping?
See your doctor rather than restarting the cream on your own. Recurring or widespread ringworm may need a different treatment, and close contacts or clothing may also need attention.
