Treatment of fungal disease must be under the supervision of a dermatologist.In the case of self -medication, the selected antifungal agent can only cause a temporary increase without cure the disease itself.
When choosing a therapeutic method, it should take into account the area and form of damage, the level of fungal prevalence, the presence of the same disease, the patient's age.
Antifungal drugs are divided into two types: for external and internal use.External agents are only effective in the early stages of the disease, so treatment should be complex: fungus should act outside and from the inside.
Internal
For the treatment of successful and safe fungal diseases, it is advisable to adhere to certain rules with internal antifungal drugs:

- The control exam must be conducted initially once every 2 weeks, then 1 time a month.Scratch control - 6 months after the end of treatment.When detecting fungus, treatment is required.
Currently, dermatologists consider the most effective and safe treatment of treatment for long -term medication.In some cases, a 1 -week therapy course is set, after which a 3 -week break and then a new seven -day treatment.During the intake, the drug accumulates in the body, and in the next week, the next week continues to be active against the infection.
Full therapy courses are usually designed for three months.However, after completion, the drug continues to operate this year, protecting the fungus from the Reapappearance.This technique, on the one hand, allows the body to "relax" from taking drugs, on the other hand, it does not exclude the possibility of taking other drugs, including antibiotics.In addition, the risk of relapse is significantly reduced.
