What are the best systemic and topical antifungal treatments, including dosages for ringworm and skin depigmentation issues?
Asked by Male, 28 · 2 months ago
Use antifungal creams twice daily for 2-4 weeks for ringworm. If the infection is significant or not improving, a doctor may give oral terbinafine once daily or fluconazole once a week. Always consult your doctor before starting or changing treatment.
