Hi,
Thanks for contacting Healthcaremagic.
I have gone through your query,"zimig" is the brand name of antifungal medicine terbinafine.
Zimig is very effective for ringworm infection,We prescribe once daily or twice daily dose according to the severity of the infection.
As you are having recurrence,you can go for twice daily dose.Use a topical antifungal cream along with the oral medicine. Clotrimazole is a commonly used for local application.Try this after having a word with your doctor.
Hope it will work.
Wishing you all the best.
Thank you.
