What Causes Athlete’s Foot?

Athlete’s foot is a common fungal infection that typically appears between the toes. It thrives in warm, damp environments, such as sweaty socks and tight-fitting shoes, and can spread through direct contact or contaminated surfaces.

How Does Daktarin Aktiv Cream Work?

Daktarin Aktiv Cream contains miconazole nitrate, a trusted antifungal ingredient that effectively:

• Kills the fungus and bacteria responsible for athlete’s foot

• Moisturises dry, cracked skin to aid healing

• Provides long-lasting relief from irritation and discomfort

By using Daktarin Aktiv Cream, you can tackle the root cause of infection while restoring healthy, comfortable skin.

How to Use Daktarin Aktiv Cream

For best results, follow these simple steps:

• Wash and dry the affected area thoroughly, using a personal towel to prevent spreading.

• Apply the cream twice daily, once in the morning and once at night.

• Wash hands immediately after applying to avoid spreading the fungus.

• Continue use for a few days after symptoms have cleared to prevent reinfection.
