Eberwin Cream is an antifungal medicine that is used in the treatment of various fungal infections of the skin like athlete's foot (a fungal infection that usually begins between the toes), jock itch (a fungal infection that causes a red and itchy rash in warm and moist areas of the body) and ringworm infections. Eberwin Cream kills and stops the growth of fungi by damaging their cell wall, thereby killing them. Eberwin Cream may cause mild side effects like itching, burning sensation, irritation and redness at the site of application. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen.

Apply a thin layer over the affected parts of your skin. Avoid contact with your eyes and mouth. Rinse with water immediately if the medicine comes in contact with these areas. Avoid using other medications on the same area while using Eberwin Cream. Eberwin Cream may take a few days or weeks for improving your condition. Therefore, it is advised to complete the whole treatment with this medicine as prescribed. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or are breastfeeding before using this medicine.
