Should The Clotrimazole Cream Be Used Only Externally, On The Skin?

Hi, I was prescribed with (Clotrimazole Cream With Applicator) but was advised to use the Clotrimazole Cream on the outside (itching area) instead of inserting, is this cream okay to be used on the outside? However i was given (Clotrimazole Tablet With Applicator) to be inserted.

Hello,

Clotrimazole cream should be used for external application in the itchiness area.

Instead, the Clotrimazole tablet with applicator should be inserted.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
