I've been dealing with athlete's foot for what feels like forever, and my doctor finally prescribed Loprox 0.77% Gel. I've been using it for a few days now, and I wanted to share my experience so far. The gel is easy to apply, and it doesn’t leave a greasy residue, which is a plus. However, I did notice some mild itching at the application site. I'm not sure if it's a side effect or just my skin reacting to the treatment. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've been dealing with a persistent case of athlete's foot for the past few months, and my doctor prescribed Loprox 0.77% Gel. I've been using it for a week now, and I wanted to share my experience and hear from others who might have used this antifungal gel. The gel has a strong smell, which I wasn’t expecting. I find that the smell gets stronger as it sits on the skin for a bit. I'm wondering if anyone else has noticed this and if it fades over time. I've also been a bit concerned about the potential side effects, especially the skin irritation mentioned in the prescription info. Luckily, I haven’t had any severe reactions yet, but I’m keeping a close eye on it. Has anyone else had any issues with this gel? How long did it take to see results? I'm hoping to hear some success stories or tips for using this medication effectively. I've also reached out to my doctor with a few questions, so if any other tips come up, I might share them, too.
