The name of your medicine is Daktarin Oral Gel and its active ingredient is miconazole. Each gram of gel contains 20 mg of miconazole.

The cream contains miconazole nitrate which works by destroying both the fungus that causes the infection and some of the associated bacteria which may also be present. It also has moisturising properties to help soothe cracked, red skin.

Do not use this medicine if any of the above applies to you. If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Daktacort cream. The inflamed skin is on your face. You should not use Daktacort cream on your face, unless your doctor has told you to
