Dermatomycoses are the human’s oldest recognized and reported infections, which are the fastest growing infections of the skin, hair, and nails. These infections are a global concern due to their ever-increasing prevalence of about 25-27 %, high rate of relapse/recurrence, and resistance. The study was conducted in search of safer and more effective natural medicine. The effect of the standard drug, Terbinafine cream as control is compared with the test drug, Unani formulation in the paste form for local application, containing Kaththa (Acacia catechu), Hena (Lawsonia innermis), Mazu (Quercus infectoria), Kibreet (Sulphur), and Suhaga (Borax). The data on the effect of the control and test drugs on the various features of the dermatomycoses shows that the Unani formulation is almost similar to the standard drug in terms of Mycological cure and Clinical cure statistically. Hence, Unani formulation can be used in the treatment of dermatomycoses.Keywords
