Lcz one at night 3. Sertaconazole cream at night 4. Ciclopirox cream at day after use of these for 2 weeks, my all sign of ringworm removed. After 15 days of stopping of these medicines I found that some new lesions appears on the earlier locations. Doctor again suggested to use the same treatment for another three weeks.
