Tinea versicolor: Most mild cases of tinea versicolor only need a special “shampoo” or cream. The shampoo is used like a soap on the affected skin. If it covers a large part of your body, or if it doesn’t get better with the shampoo or cream, you might need oral treatment. Your doctor will decide if you need pills. Topical antifungal medications, topical selenium sulfide, and topiical zinc pyrithion are 1st line
