How to use

• Dosage for children and adults: Apply a thin layer of the cream twice a day (morning and evening) to the affected areas of skin and the neighbouring skin area (approx. 1-2 cm).

Method of application:

• For use on the skin.
• Daktarin 2% Cream is intended for external use only.
• Massage the cream into the skin with your finger until it is completely absorbed. The cream should be applied sparingly to avoid maceration of the skin.

Duration of treatment:

The duration of treatment for skin mycoses depends on the severity, localisation and extent of the disease and should generally be set at 2-6 weeks. The signs of skin mycosis usually disappear significantly within the first 7 days after the start of treatment. To avoid recurrence, treatment should be continued until the fungal culture is negative, but at least 1 week after the symptoms have disappeared. There should be a treatment-free interval of 3-4 days between the last application and the preparation of a fungal culture so that any active ingredient residues do not affect the culture.
