About Dk Gel

Dk Gel belongs to the class of antifungal medication. It is used in the treatment of fungal or yeast infections of the skin, such as athlete’s foot (affects toes), jock itch (affects the groin area), candidiasis (affects mouth, throat, gut, and vagina), and ringworm (affects skin or the scalp)­­­­. Athlete’s foot, jock itch, and ringworm are fungal infections closely related to each other, whereas candidiasis is a yeast infection caused by Candida albicans. These infections are usually seen in people with weak immune systems. They can spread by skin-to-skin contact.

Dk Gel contains miconazole. Dk Gel can inhibit fungal growth and reduce infection. Generally, Dk Gel may take 4 to 7 days to reduce the symptoms. Your doctor will decide what dose should be taken based on your health condition. Continue using Dk Gel even if the symptoms improve. Abrupt stopping of the medication may result in a relapse of the infection (reappearance of the signs). So, continue treatment as recommended by your doctor to eradicate the infection.

Use Dk Gel as recommended by the physician. In some cases, Dk Gel may cause redness, rash, itching, or blister formation at the site of application, impaired sense of taste (dysgeusia), headache, itching or burning, tummy/abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. Inform your doctor if the side effects don’t disappear or get worse within a few days. Seek medical attention immediately if you experience any other abnormal symptoms.

Before taking the Dk Gel, inform your doctor if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to miconazole or any other antifungal agents. Inform your doctor if you are taking anticoagulants, immunosuppressants, antifungals, antibiotics, prescription drugs, or non-prescription drugs.

Side effects of Dk Gel 30 gm
Here are the few steps for dealing with itching caused by drug use:
  • Report the itching to your doctor immediately; they may need to change your medication or dosage.
  • Use a cool, damp cloth on the itchy area to help soothe and calm the skin, reducing itching and inflammation.
  • Keep your skin hydrated and healthy with gentle, fragrance-free moisturizers.
  • Try not to scratch, as this can worsen the itching and irritate your skin.
  • If your doctor prescribes, you can take oral medications or apply topical creams or ointments to help relieve itching.
  • Track your itching symptoms and follow your doctor's guidance to adjust your treatment plan if needed. If the itching persists, consult your doctor for further advice.
  • Burning sensation is an abnormal side effect that needs medical attention. To relieve the burning feeling, your doctor may prescribe painkillers or antidepressants.
  • Focused exercises can improve strength and reduce burning by soothing muscles.
  • Change in lifestyle and improving nutrition can reduce the causes of burning sensation and provide relief.
  • Your doctor may suggest nerve block injections as it is related to sensation in the skin.
  • Burning feeling in a specific area would need mild electrical currents to reduce pain that targets the nerve affected. This practice must be done only if your doctor mentions it.
  • Skin rash caused by allergies is due to irritants or allergens. Therefore, avoid contact with such irritants.
  • Consult your doctor for proper medication and apply an anti-itch medication. Follow the schedule and use the medication whenever needed.

  • Soak in the cool bath, which gives a soothing impact to the affected area.
