Persistent Tinea cruris, despite multiple doses of Fluka 150 Tablet (Fluconazole), indicates the need to consult a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and review the treatment plan. The doctor may prescribe a longer course of oral antifungals, combined with a topical antifungal cream such as terbinafine, clotrimazole, or ketoconazole for 2?4 weeks to achieve effective results. Maintaining good hygiene, keeping the area dry, and wearing loose cotton clothing can help prevent recurrence.
