Yes, Logifin can cure ringworm. It is used for the treatment of ringworm which is a fungal infection of the skin caused by fungi such as Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum. It works by preventing the synthesis of ergosterol (a component of the cell membrane of fungi). In the absence of ergosterol fungal cell wall is damaged that results in an increase in permeability of fungal cell wall this causes leakage of nutrients which kills the fungi.
