How often should Daktozin be applied?
Apply gently without aggressive rubbing at every diaper change after thoroughly cleaning and drying the diaper area.
How long should the treatment continue?
Continue treatment for a full 7 days or until all visible signs of rash and fungal infection have completely resolved. Stopping prematurely can allow microscopic fungal organisms to repopulate.
How is a fungal diaper rash recognized versus normal chafing?
Unlike irritant friction rashes that spare the skin folds, candidal infections thrive in deep groin creases and typically present with bright red discoloration and small distinct "satellite" spots outside the primary rash area.
Can cloth diapers be used with Daktozin?
Because Daktozin is a dense, high-barrier ointment with 15% Zinc Oxide, it is recommended to use a disposable fleece liner to protect cloth diapers from barrier oil buildup.
