Daktarin Powder - For Fungal Infection

✅ What it is

• Daktarin Powder is a topical antifungal powder whose active ingredient is Miconazole Nitrate (2% w/w). 

• The powder formulation (rather than cream or lotion) helps keep skin dry, which is useful for sweaty or moist areas where fungal infections thrive — e.g. feet, groin, skin folds, armpits. 

🩺 What it’s used for (Indications)

Daktarin Powder is indicated for various skin fungal or yeast infections, including:

• Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis) 

• Ringworm / fungal skin infections (tinea corporis) 

• Jock itch (tinea cruris) / fungal infections in groin or skin‑fold areas 

• Intertrigo or yeast/fungal infections in damp skin areas (e.g. under breasts, between toes, diaper rash in infants) 

• It may also help prevent recurrence — e.g. dusting inside socks or shoes after fungal foot infection — because its drying effect limits fungus‑friendly moisture. 

⚙️ How it works

• Miconazole nitrate works by disrupting the fungal cell membrane — interfering with ergosterol production (a key membrane component for fungi), causing the membrane to lose integrity and leading to fungal cell death. 

• As a powder, Daktarin also helps absorb moisture and reduce dampness — creating an environment less favorable for fungi. 

📝 How to use

• Use only on clean, dry skin. Wash and dry the area thoroughly before application. 

• Apply a thin layer of the powder to the affected area once or twice daily. 

• Continue use for some time (e.g. 10 days) after visible symptoms disappear, to reduce risk of recurrence. 

• For prevention (e.g. in shoes, socks, or damp-prone areas), dusting a small amount can help maintain dryness and reduce fungal growth risk. 

⚠️ Warnings, Limitations & Side‑Effects

• External use only — do not apply on mucous membranes, inside mouth/nose, or near eyes. 

• Because it contains talc, avoid inhaling the powder — this is especially important for children and infants. 

• Not suitable for nail or scalp fungal infections — Daktarin Powder is indicated only for skin surface fungal (and some bacterial) infections. 

• Possible local reactions: skin irritation, redness, itching, burning, rash, allergic reactions (rarely anaphylaxis). If these occur, stop use and seek medical advice. 

• Contraindicated if you have known allergy to miconazole or imidazole‑class antifungals
