CompareCompareDaktarin Gold Cream is a medicine which is used to treat skin infections which may appear on the feet (Athlete’s Foot), in the groin area (Dhobie itch/tinea cruris) or between skin folds (Sweat Rash infected with a yeast infection ‘thrush’).
Daktarin Gold Cream rapidly relieves the itching which these fungal infections cause. It also provides long lasting protection from Athlete’s Foot, as it will continue to work even after you have stopped using it.
The cream contains the active substance, ketoconazole, which works by destroying the fungi and yeasts that cause the infection.
If you have Athlete’s Foot, the skin between your toes will be red and itchy. Your skin may flake and crack and often the infection causes an unpleasant ‘cheesy’ smell. It is encouraged by moist, warm conditions and can be recognised by redness, irritation and itchiness between the toes.
Tinea cruris or Dhobie Itch is a fungal infection that occurs in the groin area and causes intense itching and inflammation (redness and soreness). In men, the skin of the scrotum is often affected.
Candidal intertrigo or sweat rash which has been infected with a yeast infection (‘thrush’) is usually found under the breasts and where fleshy areas around the waist or under the armpits become damp with perspiration between the deep folds of skin. The skin area becomes red and sore and it often looks like moisture is coming from the surface.
This medicine is for use in adults.

How To Use
For topical use only, which means it is applied directly to the
affected area of skin.
■ Do not use more often than the stated dose shown in the table.
How to apply the cream
■ Wash the infected area and dry it well. As many skin conditions
are contagious, you should keep a towel and flannel for your
own use and not share it so that you do not infect anyone else.
■ Apply the cream onto the infected area and surrounding skin.
■ Wash your hands carefully after applying the cream to avoid
spreading the infection to other parts of the body or to other
people. Similarly, clothing which comes into contact with the
infected areas, such as socks, should be washed and changed
frequently.
For skin infections of the trunk, groin, feet and hands, apply
Daktarin Gold 2% Cream to the affected and immediate
surrounding area once or twice a day.
Your doctor will tell you how often to use it and for how long.
Depending on the type of infection, treatment may last 2 to
6 weeks.
The recommended dose is:
For Athlete’s foot (infections between the toes)
Rub the cream gently between the toes and surrounding area once or twice a day (morning and night) for 4 to 6 weeks.
Treatment may be necessary for up to 6 weeks
Continue to apply the cream to the affected areas for
a few days after signs of infection have cleared to prevent
them coming back.
■ If symptoms have not improved within 4 weeks talk to your
doctor.
For Dhobie itch and Sweat Rash (Candidal Intertrigo)
Rub the cream into the affected and surrounding area once or twice daily
Continue treatment for a few days after signs of infection have
cleared. Treatment may be necessary for up to 4 weeks. You
may feel relief from symptoms quickly but it is important that
you continue to use the cream as described to prevent them
from coming back.
■ If symptoms have not improved within 4 weeks talk
to your doctor.
