Hi. Any medicine containing salicylic acid should only be taken after getting a prescription for it by a certified dermatologist. Avoid using the lotion for now and just use a ketoconazole shampoo for the time being 2-3 times every week. If there is still purging after couple weeks then get yourself checked by a dermatologist or seek an online consultation with us.

Itraconazole is excreted in small amounts in breast milk, so it is recommended to avoid if possible during breast feeding.

You need to continuously follow up with the doctor.
The medicines might have to be changed it it looks like the infection has become resistant to a particular drug. Fungal infections do take a few months to clear.
Regular follow up is important
