What Kinds of Antifungal Medications are Available?

An antifungal cream is a topical medication that treats fungal infections on the body, skin, and scalp. These infections include diseases like jock's itch, toenail fungus, athlete’s foot, and ringworm. You can buy an antifungal foot cream or jock’s itch cream at any pharmaceutical store or get it online too. The most common forms of antifungal treatments are tablets, powders, and ointments. You can also get specific creams according to the body part on which the fungus attacks. For example, there are natural antifungal foot creams especially to treat athlete’s foot and toenail fungus. 

Antifungal medications treat the skin and show results within 2 to 4 weeks. Antifungal medications are not only curative but mostly preventive too! Doctors always advise keeping a good ringworm cream or powder handy for optimal skin protection. You can use an antifungal ringworm cream or any other antifungal cream as an emergency treatment without the consultation of a doctor. 

How do Antifungal Foot Cream and Ringworm Creams Work?

Antifungal medications like ringworm creams mostly work superficially on the skin. Fungal infections do not penetrate the skin and so, creams provide a complete treatment as compared to tablets. It depends upon the kind of fungal skin infection that you have. The main purpose of any antifungals or ringworm cream is to block the growth of the infection-causing pathogen. It prevents the fungi from breeding and spreading to the other body parts. It works by blocking the component of cell membranes known as ergosterol. It blocks the DNA synthesis and replication of the fungi and curbs the infection.

• Oral medications that include tablets, capsules, and herbal concoctions
