Daktarin oral gel is a medicine which is used to treat fungal infections of the mouth, throat, gullet, stomach or gut. The gel contains miconazole which works by destroying the fungus that is present. This medicine is for use in adults and children aged 4 months and over.
How to use
How to apply the gel:
• Each tube of the gel is sealed - use the cap to pierce the seal.
• For oral use only.
• Keep the gel in the mouth as long as possible. Do not swallow it straight away.
• If the infection is just in the mouth, apply directly to the affected area with a clean finger.
• If you are wearing dentures, remove them at bedtime and rub them with the gel. This helps stop your dentures becoming infected too.
• Do not use more than the stated dose.
• Use after meals.
• If you are giving the gel to a child or infant aged 4 months or over, make sure that the gel does not become a choking hazard by making sure you place the gel at the front of the mouth.
