About Losweat Dusting Powder

Losweat Dusting Powder belongs to a group of medicines known as 'anti-fungal/ anti-bacterial' used to treat different type of skin infections such as athlete's foot (ringworm of the foot), jock itch (ringworm of the groin), ringworm and seborrheic dermatitis (dry, flaking skin or dandruff) and bacterial infections. Fungal infection occurs when a fungus invades and affects the tissue on the skin. Fungi can live in the air, soil, water and plants. Symptoms of a fungal infection include skin rash, irritation, redness and scaling of the skin. Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes illness.
