Overview
Whitfield's Ointment (20g) is a traditional antifungal ointment used to treat fungal skin infections such as ringworm and athlete's foot. It combines benzoic acid, which helps kill the fungus, with salicylic acid, which helps peel away the infected, scaly skin so healthy skin can grow back. Applied to the affected area, it tackles the itchy, flaky, ring-shaped rashes that fungal infections cause. A long-trusted, affordable antifungal option helping people treat ringworm and athlete's foot. Confirm the actives on the pack.
Actives: Benzoic acid (typically 6%) and Salicylic acid (typically 3%). Confirm exact strengths on the pack.
Directions for Use
For external use on the skin. Wash and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer of ointment to the fungal patch twice a day (morning and night), rubbing in gently. Continue for the full period advised. Often for a week or two after the rash clears. To fully treat the infection and prevent it returning. Wash your hands after applying, and keep the area clean and dry.
For external use on the skin only. Avoid the eyes, mouth, broken or raw skin, and large areas or skin folds unless advised, as the salicylic acid can irritate. Stop use if marked redness, stinging or irritation develops. Do not use on the face or on babies/young children without medical advice. See a doctor if the infection is widespread, on the scalp or nails, or does not improve. Store below 25°C.
