I've been using Azolen Anti-Fungal 2% Wash for a couple of weeks now to treat some persistent athlete's foot. It seems to be working, but I've had some side effects that worry me. I've read the pamphlet, and I'm concerned about some symptoms I've experienced that aren't listed. Has anyone had similar issues? I've got some burning and stinging, which isn't too bad, but I also have some redness and swelling around the area where I applied it. I'm not sure if this is normal or if I should be worried. I've done some research and found that some people have had severe reactions. I'm just wondering if anyone here has had similar experiences or if there's any advice on what to do. I've contacted my doctor, but I'm anxious to hear from others who might have been through this.

I had a friend who had a bad reaction to this. He had the burning and stinging, but then he started swelling. The doctor said it was an allergic reaction. Stick to the product, though, the good thing is, it cleared the infection.

My brother had a horrible reaction to Azolen. Swelling, breathing issues... I'd be cautious. Maybe try a different medication or at least talk to a doctor. You can always report the side effects to the FDA, if it gets worse!

I had a similar reaction to this stuff. Redness and swelling were a pain, but I waited it out and it went away. I'd keep an eye on it though.

I used this for athlete's foot and had no side effects. I just followed the instructions and it worked like a charm. If you're worried, maybe try a different anti-fungal?

I've had itching and burning, which was miserable, but no severe reactions. Just make sure you are not using too much at once. Worse come to worst, your doctor will have a different treatment for you.

I've used this a few times and never had any issues. Make sure you're using it as directed and not leaving it on too long. I'm not sure what to say, you may want to ask a doctor about something different.

I've used this for jock itch and had no issues. Just make sure you use it as directed and don't overdo it. Some people are just more sensitive than others. My advice, if it gets worse, call a doctor.

I had a reaction to this stuff too. I got a rash and it was itchy as hell. I switched to something else and it cleared up right away. Side effects are no joke, especially some people have a severe allergic reaction and that is hard for some people to deal with.
