Details
A broad spectrum antifungal gel specifically formulated to treat oral thrush. Miconazole possesses an antifungal activity against the common dermatophytes and yeasts as well as an antibacterial activity against certain gram-positive bacilli and cocci. Its activity is based on the inhibition of the ergosterol biosynthesis in fungi and the change in the composition of the lipid components in the membrane, resulting in fungal cell necrosis.
Unless otherwise directed by your doctor or pharmacist, use the following quantities of Daktarin Oral Gel: Adults and Children 2 years of age and older - Half a spoonful four times a day. Infants (6-24 months) - One quarter of a spoonful four times a day. Continue treatment for at least a week after the symptoms have disappeared. This is to ensure that the treatment is complete.
