Does desoximetasone cream 0.25% help get rid of ringworm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ringworm is a fungal infection. Desoximetasone is a topical steroid. It is used to treat various skin conditions, including rashes. It is not an antifungal. More information here: https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/diseases/ringworm/treatment.html
