What over-the-counter oral medication can help with ringworm on scalp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scalp ringworm: You can try tinactin (tolnaftate) or Nizoral cream. Ring worm in this area of the body can be hard to get rid of and you may need to get a prescription from you doctor if those are not working.
