MedDataToolKroger Antifungal is a medication used to treat common skin infections like athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm, helping to relieve symptoms such as itching, burning, and cracking. It works by targeting the fungi that cause these infections, helping your skin heal. For adults and children aged 12 and older, it is applied to the affected area: twice a day for one week between the toes, twice a day for two weeks on the bottom or sides of the foot, and once a day for one week for jock itch and ringworm. A key warning is that it should only be used on the skin and not on nails, the scalp, or near the eyes. If you have a vaginal yeast infection, you should not use this medication.
