Question 1

I'm dealing with a frustrating fungal infection and I'm unsure how to choose the right antifungal cream for it. Do you have any recommendations or tips on what I should look for in a good antifungal cream? Also, are there any specific ingredients or types that are more effective than others?

Accepted Answer

I recommend using Clotrimazole cream, applying it to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks.

Question 2

I've been using Mintop for about 7 to 8 months and I'm wondering if it's safe to start taking Kerablak and Keraglo along with it. Is there any reason why I shouldn't combine these, or do you think there's a good chance they'll work well together? What should I watch out for if I do?
