Antifungal

Antifungal medicines treat fungal infections affecting different parts of the body, including the skin, nails, mouth, scalp, and internal organs. Depending on the type and severity of the infection, they work by stopping fungal growth or eliminating fungi. Antifungal medicines are available in different forms, including tablets, capsules, creams, ointments, powders, shampoos, and injections. Because different fungal infections require different treatments, use antifungal medicines only under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
