Diabet-X Plus Top Uses
Miconazole is used to treat skin infections such as athlete's
foot, jock itch, ringworm, and other fungal skin infections
(candidiasis). This medication is also used to treat a skin
condition known as pityriasis (tinea versicolor), a fungal
infection that causes a lightening or darkening of the skin of the
neck, chest, arms, or legs. Miconazole is an azole antifungal that
works by preventing the growth of fungus.
How To Use Diabet-X Plus Top
Use this medication on the skin only. Clean and thoroughly dry
the area to be treated. Apply this medication to the affected skin,
usually twice a day or as directed by your doctor. Dosage and
length of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated.
Do not apply this more often than prescribed. Your condition will
not clear faster, but side effects may be increased.
Apply enough medication to cover the affected area and some of
the surrounding skin. After applying this medication, wash your
hands. Do not wrap, cover or bandage the area unless directed to do
so by your doctor.
Do not apply this medication in the eyes, nose, mouth, or
vagina.
Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit
from it. Remember to use it at the same times each day.
Continue to use this medication until the full prescribed amount
is finished, even if symptoms disappear after starting miconazole.
Stopping the medication too early may allow the fungus to continue
to grow, which may result in a relapse of the infection.
Inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.
