No, Sonaderm alone should not be used for ringworm because it is a fungal infection of the skin caused by fungi such as Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum and Sonaderm is not an antifungal agent and it is not effective against fungi. Hence Sonaderm should not be used for the treatment of ringworm. For the treatment of ringworm, you can use a combination of Sonaderm and antifungal drugs such as miconazole and fluconazole.
