How it works
Luray Cream is an antifungal medication that treats skin infections. It kills the infection-causing fungi by destroying their cell membrane. This relieves discomfort, itching, and irritation on the skin.
Quick Tips
Keep your feet clean and dry particularly between the toes. Cut your nails short and prefer open-toe shoes for everyday use. Use a separate clean towel for the feet and wear clean cotton socks. Never share your socks, shoes, and towel with others. Apply an amount sufficient to cover the affected area and 1 inch of the immediate surrounding skin. It can take a few weeks for the infection to clear and a few months before the skin returns to its normal color. Finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. It is not taken orally so it does not cause many side effects.
