Overview
Candid-B Cream is supplied as a cream, with Clotrimazole 1% w/w and Beclomethasone dipropionate 0.025% w/w. It is supplied in pack sizes of 15g and 60g.
No prescription is required for this product, as it is a non-prescription medicine. This page is limited to product, safety and handling information.
If you would like guidance before buying, you can speak to a doctor or pharmacist through an online consultation on DoctorOnCall. Orders are dispensed by a registered pharmacist and delivered to your address.
Directions for Use
Clean and dry the affected area before applying a thin layer of Candid-B Cream, gently rubbing it in until absorbed, usually twice daily or as directed on the product label. Wash your hands after application unless the hands are the area being treated, and avoid covering the treated area with airtight or occlusive dressings unless advised by a healthcare professional.
Dosage
Candid-B Cream is generally applied as a thin layer to the affected skin twice daily, in the morning and evening, for the duration recommended on the product packaging or by a pharmacist, typically for a short course due to the steroid component. Do not use more than the recommended amount or for longer than advised, as prolonged steroid use on the skin can lead to side effects.
Shelf Life
Candid-B Cream has a shelf life of approximately 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the tube and outer packaging before use, and discard the product if it has expired.
Storage Instructions
Store Candid-B Cream below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the tube tightly closed after each use. Keep out of the reach and sight of children.

Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity to clotrimazole, beclomethasone, or any other ingredient in the cream

Drug / Food Interactions
- Avoid applying other topical steroid or antifungal products to the same area at the same time unless advised by a pharmacist or doctor
- Do not use occlusive dressings or airtight bandages over the treated area unless specifically directed, as this increases steroid absorption
- Inform your pharmacist of any other skin treatments you are using to avoid overlapping or interacting topical therapies
Quick Tips
- Apply only a thin layer – more cream does not work faster and increases the risk of side effects
- Use for the shortest duration needed to control symptoms, as advised on the label or by a pharmacist
- Avoid applying to broken or weeping skin, the face, or near the eyes unless told to do so by a healthcare professional
- Wash your hands before and after application, unless treating the hands
- Seek pharmacist or doctor advice if there is no improvement after the recommended period of use
- Do not use for longer than recommended, as this can thin the skin over time

It is supplied in pack sizes of 15g and 60g. Choose the pack size you need from the options shown on this page before adding the item to your cart.
Why is there no information here about what Candid-B Cream is for?
This page is limited to product, safety and handling information in line with Malaysian rules on medicine information. If you want advice on whether this product suits you, book an online consultation with a doctor or pharmacist on DoctorOnCall.
How should I use Candid-B Cream?
Follow the instructions printed on the label and in the leaflet supplied with the pack, and do not exceed the stated amount or duration. Handling steps are set out in the Directions for Use section on this page.
Can I speak to a doctor or pharmacist about Candid-B Cream before I buy it?
Yes. DoctorOnCall offers online consultations with licensed doctors and registered pharmacists, so you can ask about this product, your existing medicines, or anything on the label before you place an order.
How should I store Candid-B Cream?
Store Candid-B Cream below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the tube tightly closed after each use. Keep out of the reach and sight of children. Keep it in its original pack and do not use it after the expiry date printed on the packaging.
What should I do if I notice side effects after using Candid-B Cream?
Stop using the product and speak to a doctor or pharmacist about any reaction that concerns you. Seek medical care immediately for signs of a severe reaction such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips or throat, or a widespread rash. Reported reactions are listed in the Side Effects section on this page.
How long will delivery take?
Within Malaysia, standard delivery takes 3 to 5 working days. Same-day delivery is available in the Klang Valley for orders placed before 12pm; orders placed after 12pm arrive by the end of the next day.
Orders to Singapore are sent as international deliveries and take 5 to 9 working days. A lump-sum shipping and handling fee applies to every overseas delivery and is shown at checkout.
What payment methods can I use?
Customers in Malaysia can pay by FPX online banking, credit or debit card (Visa and Mastercard), and supported e-wallets including Touch ‘n Go eWallet, GrabPay and ShopeePay.
FPX and local e-wallets are tied to Malaysian bank and wallet accounts, so if your delivery address is in Singapore, use the payment options displayed at checkout for that address rather than assuming the same list applies.
Can Candid-B Cream be delivered to Singapore?
Yes. DoctorOnCall ships to Singapore as an international order dispatched from Malaysia, arriving in 5 to 9 working days with a lump-sum shipping and handling fee.
Singapore’s Health Sciences Authority (HSA) allows personal imports of up to three months’ supply of a medicine for your own use or an immediate family member’s, as long as it contains no controlled drugs, psychotropic substances or prohibited items. Keep the product in its original labelled packaging and keep a copy of your prescription or doctor’s letter with it. Quantities above three months’ supply, and medicines containing controlled substances, require prior HSA approval.
Is Candid-B Cream registered with the authorities?
Products listed on DoctorOnCall are registered with Malaysia’s Ministry of Health for supply in Malaysia, and each pack carries its MAL registration number.
An order delivered to Singapore arrives as a personal import of a Malaysia-registered product; HSA product registration is not required for personal-use quantities, but it is also not the same as a product registered for sale in Singapore. If you need a locally registered Singapore product, buy it from a pharmacy in Singapore.
Who do I contact if there is a problem with my order?
DoctorOnCall’s customer care team handles order, delivery and product queries through the contact channels on the site, including WhatsApp and the online help centre.
For deliveries to Singapore, allow more time before chasing an order than you would for a local Malaysian delivery, as the parcel passes through customs clearance and tracking updates can appear later in the journey.
