About Fytofin Tablet

Tinea capitis is a fungal infection of the scalp that is contagious and causes bald, itchy, and scaly patches in a ring shape.

Fytofin Tablet is not recommended for patients with chronic or active liver disease. Your doctor may recommend a liver function test to monitor whether your liver is functioning effectively.

The usual duration of treatment for Tinea corporis (ringworms), Tinea pedis (fungal infection in the foot), and Tinea cruris (fungal infection in the groin) is about 2 to 4 weeks, though it can occasionally be extended to 6 weeks.
