Griseovin syrup is an antifungal medication primarily used to treat a variety of fungal infections affecting the skin, hair, and nails. This medication helps eliminate fungi that grow on the surface of the body or within tissue layers, which helps relieve symptoms and restore the health of the affected area.
Griseovin is used to treat tinea capitis, a fungal skin infection that affects the scalp and hair. It is also prescribed to treat fungal disorders that lead to discoloration of the nails or cause them to become brittle and cracked. It can be used to treat skin fungal diseases such as athlete's foot or tinea versicolor, which usually appear as itchy red or white patches on the skin.
