Dear Madam, Greetings! I am writing this message on behalf of my mother Lalita Devi, She is 52 year old and suffering from ring on her lower, middle and upper abdomen, hands and other places on her body. We had consulted doctors in our area. They prescribed Terbinafine and Itraconazole tablet with lotions. We are giving those medicines but her condition is as it is, itching has spread all over her body and she has number of sleepless night from last one month. I would also like to add that she has been taking rumatid medicines from last one year (HCQS 200, pantoprazole 40.

the main reason behind the ringworm infection not responding to treatment is generally the presence of moisture. so it is important to keep the affected area clean and dry. also soak the bed linen and clothes etc in dettol water while washing. this will prevent re-infection. follow these steps along with medicines and she will be benefitted.
