Suggest remedy for fungal infections
Patient: HI ,I am suffering with fungal infection on my ties from last 3 year. doctor suggested tab :Gris -OD(daily one for 45 days) and cream KETO to apply on surface of skin.my question is i need to use it 45 days mandatory r any thing else to heal in 10 are 15 days.Regards Vijay Kumar Doctor: Although not mandatory to use for 45 days, I would insist on prolonged use as your doctor has advised. This is because, some fungal hyphae remain there for long and often germinate after the course is completed. This may lead to failure of treatment which can be avoided with prolonged treatment with topical ketoconazole (keto cream) and oral griseofulvin (Gris OD). Your doctor has given you the right medicines, so please continue it.
