How Losweat Dusting Powder works

Losweat Dusting Powder is a combination of two medicines: Miconazole and Chlorhexidine Gluconate which treat skin infections. Miconazole is an antifungal medicine which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Chlorhexidine Gluconate is an antiseptic and disinfectant which effectively cleans out the affected area of skin to prevent it from getting infected.

Dear sir please elaborate your symptoms, history, treatment and investigations done.

Hello, I work in a very sweaty environment, I recently had a ringworm outbreak, I used EBERNET and it worked perfectly fine for me, On the recommendation of a few friends who suggested to use anti-fungal soap for a few days to ensure that the spores are completely eliminated from my body. Are there any effective anti-fungal soaps or shampoos that I can use to treat ringworm infection? Is there a method to determine if my scalp is affected by ringworm's? If I do happen to have this, What should be my next set of actions to treat ringworm's on scalp, before visiting a hospital/clinic? Regards, PATIENT
