I've been dealing with athlete's foot and jock itch for a few weeks now, and my doctor prescribed Naftin 1% Gel 60gm. I've used it for about a week, and I'm starting to see some improvement. The gel is easy to apply, and it doesn't leave a strong residue like some other topical treatments I've tried. However, I'm a bit concerned about the potential side effects, especially the severe allergic reactions and skin irritation. Has anyone else had any bad experiences with this medication? I've been careful to follow the instructions closely, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything. I also noticed that it says to report side effects to the FDA. Does anyone know if that's just for the serious side effects, or should I report any unusual reaction, no matter how minor? Thanks for any advice!
