Topical treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Twice weekly topical application of lime sulphur, enilconazole or a miconazole\/chlorhexidine shampoo.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    a. Miconazole shampoos are most effective when combined with chlorhexidine.
    \nb. Chlorhexidine as monotherapy is not very effective and is not recommended.<\/p>\n

    2. For localised treatment: clotrimazole, miconazole and enilconazole.
    \n3. Topical therapies should be maintained until two consecutive negative fungal cultures are obtained within two weeks of each other<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Systemic treatment<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Itraconazole and terbinafine are the most effective and safest options for the treatment of dermatophytosis.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      a. Itraconazole at a dose of 5 mg\/kg once daily for four weeks.
      \nb. Terbinafine at a dose of 30-40 mg\/kg every 24 hours<\/p>\n

      2. Ketoconazole and fluconazole are less effective treatment options<\/p>\n

      a. Ketoconazole at a dose of 5 to 10 mg\/kg every 24 hours.
      \nb. Fluconazole dose is 5 mg\/kg per 24 hours.<\/p>\n

      Environmental therapy<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Sodium hypochlorite (household bleach) has been shown to be an effective disinfectant when used at concentrations ranging from 1:10 to 1: 100, even with short contact times.<\/li>\n
      2. Enilconazole is also an effective antifungal product for cleaning. It is highly effective at a concentration of 20 \u03bcl\/L.<\/li>\n
      3. Accelerated hydrogen peroxide (AHP) is one of the newer broad-spectrum disinfectants.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
