Daktarin Tincture Liquid for Fungal Infections 30mL (S2)

Daktarin Tincture Liquid is a fast-acting topical antifungal solution used to treat fungal infections of the skin, nails, and cuticles. It contains miconazole nitrate 20 mg/mL, a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that effectively kills fungi and certain bacteria responsible for common skin and nail infections such as tinea, athlete’s foot, ringworm, and onychomycosis (fungal nail infections).

The tincture’s liquid formulation penetrates deep into the affected area, drying quickly to form a protective film that allows the active ingredient to continue working beneath the surface.
