Microcidal Tabs & Acne: Understanding Treatment Options

Miconazole, also known by the brand name Monistat, is a topical antifungal medication.

It is used to treat cutaneous fungal infections such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm.

Miconazole is not indicated for the treatment of acne.

Acne is a skin condition that occurs when the sebaceous glands in the skin become blocked and infected with bacteria.

The primary treatment for acne is the use of topical and oral antibiotics, as well as retinoids and benzoyl peroxide.
