I've been struggling with athlete's foot for months, trying various creams with little success. My doctor recently prescribed butenafine 1% cream, and I've seen a significant improvement in just a week. I was worried about side effects, especially the urgent ones like skin irritation at the application site, but fortunately, I haven't experienced any. The burning, redness, and swelling have subsided. I'm curious if others have had similar experiences or if there are any tips for using this cream effectively. Also, does anyone know if it's safe to use this cream while also taking oral antifungal medications? Does anyone else feel like this stuff works better than some of the cheaper over-the-counter brands? I'm really hoping to kick this infection for good this time!
