Directions

For cutaneous use only, which means it is applied directly to the affected area of the skin.
Wash the infected area and dry it well. As many skin conditions are contagious, you should keep a towel and flannel for your own use and not share it so that you do not infect anyone else.
Sprinkle the powder onto the infected area and surrounding skin. It may be used on broken skin and is particularly useful where a drying effect is required. The powder can also be dusted inside socks, shoes and clothing which are in contact with the infected area.
Wash your hands carefully after applying the powder to avoid spreading the infection to other parts of the body or to other people. Similarly, clothing that comes into contact with the infected areas, such as socks, should be washed and changed frequently.
Do not use more often than the stated dose shown in the table.

Age	Dose
Adults and children of all ages	Apply the powder to the infected skin twice a day (e.g. at night and in the morning).

Continue treatment for 10 days after all the symptoms have cleared to prevent them from coming back.
If symptoms persist talk to your doctor.

If anyone accidentally swallows Daktarin Powder, contact a doctor or your nearest Accident and Emergency department (Casualty), taking this leaflet and pack with you.

If you forget to use a dose, use the next dose when needed. Do not use a double dose.

FAQ

What is Daktarin powder?

Daktarin powder quickly begins to clear fungal and bacterial skin infections, with daily use, within 7-10 days.

Daktarin contains the active ingredient miconazole nitrate which is an antifungal medicine that kills fungi and some bacterias that are responsible for infections on the skin of the trunk, hands or feet, outer ear and the groin.

Daktarin powder, unlike Daktarin cream, dries the skin as well as treating the infection. Daktarin powder is therefore often the preferred product for the treatment of conditions such as nappy rash and athlete's foot where the skin becomes moist and is suitable for use on areas of broken skin.

How does Daktarin powder work?

Daktarin powder contains miconazole nitrate which is an antifungal agent. When Daktarin is applied to the skin the miconazole destroys the fungal cells by making small holes in their membranes causing their internal content to leak out. This process stops the infection from spreading, giving the skin time to heal.

Daktarin powder also contains talc, which is the component that makes up Daktarin’s powder form. The talc is what causes Daktarin powder to be absorbent, which makes it extremely effective at drying out damp skin and reducing friction to irritated areas.
