About Ring-Out Dusting Powder

Ring-Out Dusting Powder belongs to the class of anti-fungal medications known as imidazoles, primarily used to treat fungal skin infections such as athlete's foot, ringworm, fungal nappy rash, fungal sweat rash and thrush. A fungal infection, also known as mycosis, is a skin infection caused by fungus.

Ring-Out Dusting Powder comprises clotrimazole, which works by destroying the fungus that causes the infection. Ring-Out Dusting Powder damages the fungal cell membrane and causes the components to leak out, thus killing the fungus and curing the infection.
