20 Best Fungal Cream For Skin (2023 Updated)

I got this on a whim after trying every other product under the sun, expecting little to no relief from this one either for how inexpensive it is. I’ve suffered from increasingly painful and bad intertrigo(progressive body rash that’s both fungal and bacterial and almost impossible to get rid of due to the area its in) for almost a year.

It’s affected my self esteem, the activities I could do, my sleep, like I wouldn’t do anything this summer or date because I was scared of anyone seeing it. I tried sprays, gold bond powder, deodorant, other creams, and no change.

I applied this and almost stopped using it because it BURNED. Like almost intolerably. I didn’t use it again for a week or so but bit the bullet and endured it to see the effects for for how undeniably strong and intense this stuff was.

I showered, applied this cream, topped it with Zeasorb powder to get rid of moisture, then packed paper towels in so the skin wouldn’t touch. I did this about half a dozen times and I kid you not, the rash was GONE one morning.

I actually cried at how surprised and happy I was to finally feel normal again after months of battling this. Sorry for the essay, but I felt this was the best endorsement, and because the internet is a terrible source of help or support with intertrigo, I wanted anyone suffering to buy this little tube and get your life back! Be consistent and it’s a little miracle worker! Thank you so much Derman!.

This cream knocked out the skin problem on my foot within 3 weeks! ive been using a prescribed cream off and on for more than a year that never seemed to help. The cost of this cream was half of my co-pay and the qty.

was 4 times more. My problem was dry cracking itchy skin only on the ball of my foot and big toe. i followed directions. used it twice a day and now it’s GONE. Great product.

Years back I have used this undecylenic acid formulation cream to treat athlete foot and it was very effective. Currently I have severe case with infections moving from feet to hands and arms and back.

I tried many creams and mostly no good. The only 2 creams found to be effective are Lamisil and this Derman. One drawback is Derman is to waxy for use on scalp for which I have to use the acid solution.

Even though the best creams still can’t stop the recurring of spots showing up under the foot for that I have to use 6-9% acid solution (glycolic acid, or latic acid, with or without a 2nd salicylic acid in Isopropyl Alcohol) I prepared my self.

(these ingredients are available from Ebay stores). There are thousands of fungus varieties so it is hard to tell what one has. But the acid solutions will kill all regardless of which but the acid solution is difficult to apply.

For just small stubborn spots, you can use Dr. Scholls Corn Remover which can also remove warts, and tags.

Over a great number of years I’ve been struggling with skin fungal disease off and on. But once I order this product, just within one to two weeks of usage I stated seeing and experiencing results that I never seen with other fungal cream or powder products over the years.

Thanks greatly DermaFungal👍👌👍.

The only antifungal cream that worked for my husband’s skin condition. We’ve tried a lot but they were not as effective as this. We’ll keep buying this from now on.

I use this for heat rashes that I get and it works great. Within 2 days the rash is starting to heal. This is my 2nd order of the product.

Good value for 2% Miconazole & works well on fungal infection. Highly recommend it!

Always like to have this excellent product in my medicine cabinet. I always order when my supply is getting low.

Have been using this over a year. My new toenail is 3/4 grown out and looks healthy. I use it twice a day on all of my toenails. Nails that didn’t look infected are growing out well now. Apparently they had the fungus but I didn’t know.

This is the only medicine that has worked for my toenails. It does take time and you must do it daily.

The product Tineacide is the best antifungal treatment in the business. I’ve tried others with no success. This truly is the best nails clearing up and cracked dry skin healed and smooth.

I picked this stuff up on a fluke as I was leaving work. My toe nails were not discolored but steadily getting more sensitive. I started using Tineacide and felt relief in a couple of days. Day four and my toenails look and feel so much better.

Was getting so bad that between different socks and different shoes, I was going crazy to find comfort. Like I said, it was a fluke that I picked this product and mainly because it cost the most of what other five or six products on the shelf.

Considering the relief in just four days, I would have paid more. Now at least I feel like I can be on my feet eight hours a day without just wanting to chop my toes off. I plan on keeping this around the house as long as I have feet.

I was hesitant to try Lamisil because my past experience with other medicated creams/ointments/whatever has been that they’re heavy, greasy and stinky. But, my feet were itching like crazy – I’m prone to fungal issues (yay) so I figured I’d give it a shot.

The first thing I noticed is that it was light and odorless – double score right off the bat. It absorbed quickly and didn’t leave any gross residue feeling, which was great since, you know, it’s on your feet.

It actually feels more like a nice moisturizer. The directions indicate to use it for 1-2 weeks depending on the exact area you’re treating, but I noticed the itching went away after just a few days.

So it worked rapidly and effectively for me. Also, a little goes a long way. Another benefit is that you can use it on your um. nether regions. to treat the dreaded jock itch, which, as you know if you’e unlucky, is the opposite of fun lol.

Loved that it cured my dry, cracked feet. I used it un-religiously for about a month…. Or until the tube ran out. Mostly after showering in the a. m. as I put on my socks & sneakers. Next thing you know, healthy feeling & looking feet.

:).

I loveee this skin protectant cream. It doesnt dry out my skin but it does protect my skin by keeping it dry in places that get sweaty or wet. Since I’m paralyzed and use a wheelchair areas dont air out quickly or easily bc I’m not moving around.

If I know it’s going to be raining, I coat my bum in this moisture barrier cream to keep it dry bc water puddles in my cushion and this cream helps to prevent skin breakdown. Also, if I have a red spot anywhere on my skin like from pressure or bruising, i use this cream on it to form a protective layer over it until it goes away.

This is a product EVERYONE, not just wheelchair users, should keep on hand. It works for babies or anyone who has to wear diapers or protective underwear. It works for people who get really sweaty and have problems keeping areas dry which causes odor, irritation, even fungus or infection.

It works for people with sweaty feet or who have to wear work boots or their feet are in damp. conditions. this helps prevent athletes foot, fungus, yeast. This works too even if you already have odor, irritation, fungus or infection.

It keeps the area dry and helps it from getting worse and can even clear up mild cases. If you have to wear braces or any adaptive devices on your arms or legs,, neck, or back. You need this moisture barrier to keep the area dry from sweat to avoid any breakdown or irritation.

This doesnt require any prescription and is mostly through medical supply companies, hospitals, drs offices. But I have found it at some drug stores as well. You can also Google search it and buy it online.

It’s not expensive and well worth having on hand, in your car, backpack, purse, baby bag, gym bag.

I love the light fragrance of this stuff, which actually influenced me to buy it more than once. It has almost the consistency of vaseline, but not as thick and sticky. It is a translucent pale purple that totally disappears when you apply it.

I like it more than the Baza cream, which is also good, but this ointment just smells so good! Not at all a strong smell, though.

Fantastic product! I experience rash because I use an elevated commode. Sometimes urine falls upon my back side because my feet don’t reach the the floor during the process. This takes away the painful rash.

Relieves and controls combination problems with my feet and toes. A routine that REALLY works. Soak in epsom salt with 1/2-1 teas tea tree oil for 15 min. Remove excess dead skin carefully with a callus/foot grater.

Clean and trim nails, avoid creating sharp edges to your nail corners as this could lead to painful hangnails. Soak utensils in alcohol. Rinse feet with a splash of rubbing alcohol and dry feet. Apply lotrimin ultra liberally to problem areas between toes and load behind/under problem nails.

Spread entire area of both feet with additional cream. Put on cotton socks or wear slippers. Avoid ointments that trap heat. Avoid some types of synthetic insoles that irritate skin and trap heat. Lotrimin Ultra cream does not trap heat on you feet.

Soothes itching, softens hardened skin, protects newly exfoliated feet, and kills fungus. Elevate feet and drink water to keep your feet hydrated. Keep plenty of Lotrimin Ultra on hand to take care of your feet.

We are always being told to take care of ourselves, this is one of the most practical ways to make yourself feel better and solve difficult problems with your feet!!.

Completely reversed the effect. In 2 weeks. I basically only have a little tiny patch from where it originated but where it spread completely healed up, you would never assume that it spread to my other toes.

I was trying for so long to just be like “if I just let it be and clean my feet and wear open toe footwear, it should naturally heal itself, our body can handle itself” but this fixed it right up in 2 week.

I’ve had to use this occasionally over the years. It works well and absorbs easily. It also works well on other areas of the body. NOTE: The following is NOT medical advice. Antifungals don’t cure fungal infections in 1 week.

They’re designed to stop the fungus from being able to replicate which takes time. Some infections may take several weeks to months to completely disappear and the product must be used continually even after the rash has gone (for a short period of time).

(This prevents a recurrence of the fungus showing up again a week or more later). Would definitely recommend it.

I got ringworm most likely from my neighbors pets but didn’t realize that’s what it was so I didn’t catch it right away. It started on my inner thighs and calves but then spread to other areas of my body so I got this cream once I figured out what the rashes were.

I’m currently in the 4th week of treatment (put it on all spots twice a day for 4 weeks). A few spots are almost gone but there are still spots that look like they’ve only gotten a little better and new spots have shown up a few times during the course of treatment.

Decided to go to urgent care since new spots continue to show up and they prescribed a stronger topical cream. Maybe this would have helped more if I had caught the rash more quickly and not give the fungus a chance to spread but if you have more than a couple spots I wouldn’t get this cream.

Like other reviewers have mentioned it is kind of oily and takes a bit of rubbing to rub it all the way in and even still leaves a spot of stickiness.

This product is one of the least expensive at the store for antifungal purposes. It does not work as well as the more pricier items, but it does work. It just takes longer and you use more product. It’s more effective as a change up, like you use the pricier product for 2 weeks then this and then switch it back up so the fungus clears up.

I would purchase it again for a very mild beginning case, not an advanced case.

According to my wife, this tolnaftate Up & Up outperforms clotrimazole and outperforms terbinate in suppressing her athletes foot. Tolnaftate and its higher priced brand equivalent were unavailable anywhere a week earlier; so she has tried all three.

She says tolnaftate is the winner.

Moving away from Dapsone believing it to be a gluten issue to cure; I went back to this product with better success for diminsshing lingering infection postules and scabbing. I had used this product after seeing it being used on me while I was battling breakouts while having Venus Stasis, which did get remedied with 2 angiograms into my groin stents.

Apparently the wound clinic and local ultrasound techs from BMC could not grasp that blood clot damage went up higher than mid-thigh. All they could tell me venus statis could not be cured. Bah Humbug, I know it is not Xmas, but either way using it for that to help and now with these dermatology break outs – it helps out a whole lot.

Thank you.

Gentlest antifungal out there. Highly recommended for those who are highly reactive to pain (autism spectrum, dementia patients), as it rarely stings unless the person applying it rubs it in (never unnecessary).

Gentle application leads to instant relief of symptoms. This product used to be a part of Medline’s “Soothe.

Goes on similarly to a mineral sunscreen. Takes about ten minutes to ‘soak in. ‘ The fragrance is like a men’s aftershave which is not the most pleasant, but as long as it does the job I’m fine. I have chronic ringworm which is the work of the worst kind of evil, I swear, and I bought this to slather all over my legs to try and nuke it out of me once and for all.

It’s been day five and I use this in the morning with Lotrimin spray at night, so I really hope this works.

This is, by far, the very best OTC cream you can buy for foot fungus! The skin on my husband’s feet was literally hanging & you could actually peel it off! His podiatrist had him try this. In just 2 days, we could see amazing results! The doctor suggested using it twice a day for 2 weeks for best results.

He saw the doctor today & was pronounced clear! Our family doctor had suggested using hydrocortisone cream, but it did nothing to clear up his condition. I intend to keep this on hand for any future problems!.

I use this stuff for hair growth, it works because when I use it I get a small headache which lets me know that the blood is circulating which means hair growth!! Monistat costs far too much so this stuff will do.

Thanks!!.

Very fast shipping, great price, will come here again

It Works!!! It is a very soothing cream with no odor. Wal-Mart has the best prices on this item. I have searched other major shopping websites. Watch out for Amazon. They alternate between the. 42 oz sizes and the 1.

1 oz sizes, making you think you are getting a great deal if you have been shopping for the 1. 1. We also found there was not much difference between the ULTRA LOTRIMIN and the LOTRIMIN AF.

Quite possibly the worst ringworm treatment! Used this after running out of the Lotrimin Ultra and thought I’d give this a try. It got worse not better and I had to apply it more frequently like four times a day so it ran out within three days.

I immediately went back to the ultra. It’s already starting to clear up and sting, itch less. Do not buy this product for ringworm unless you like to waste your money. Worthless product!!.

This is definitely not potent enough, what in the world! We got the ringworm from a kitten from animal control; I don’t know if we got an esp powerful ringworm fungus or if this medicine is just NOT STRONG ENOUGH.

I was trying to avoid the very inconvenient trip to the doctor, but if this keeps re-emerging we will just go see what the doctor can do to help. For us, this over-the-counter medicine was pointless and a waste of money.

Soothing, Quick healing relief. After trying many other creams that promised healing and didn’t deliver, this one does. Believe it or not, the best remedy for killing the bacteria that causes inflammation and itching is original formula Listerine mouthwash.

Applied with a cotton round, it does the trick. Then liberally apply this pleasantly fragrant cream afterwards and irritation, inflammation and soreness heal in a few short days. I was truly amazed at the quick results.

Continued use of the cream keeps bacteria at bay and restores softness to sensitive skin everywhere. Irritation has not returned. I won’t be without it. Highly recommend.

Last couple of years I have had a heat rash under my breasts and in my crouch area. Tried a prescription cream, which worked, but took a long time for it to work. Then I tried Calamine loation, which worked better than the prescribed cream.

Then I gave this cream a try, oh my goodness. The pain from the rash went away so fast, and in a couple of days, the rash started going away. Think I need to buy a case of this stuff. 🙂 Very happy.

Good product Works well. Deceptive site: shows 5oz. tube of product. Delivers 2oz. tube. at the price shown.

Kids constantly have rashes from running around and getting sweaty. Buy this and hydrocortisone cream. Mix it up. Rash goes away overnight.

I have used Tinactin for years for athletes foot and jock itch. It works immediately and effectively for me. I have tried other products and I have always come back to Tinactin.

Yes, Tinactin is fairly expensive, BUT IT WORKS! I thank the Bayer Company for making available to us a product that brings relief and healing. Three cheers for the Bayer Company!

My black lab comes down with a skin infection every now and then. The vet prescribes steroids which doesn’t always seem to work or takes weeks before the skin clears. I used this ointment on the are twice a day for 3 or 4 days and it cleared up quickly.

I am adding to an already review which I have placed at the bottom of this review. The one semi-feral kitty mentioned in the review at the bottom did get cleared of an all over body fungus after the third tube of clotrimazole.

I am now using it on six kittens born of a semi-feral mother. One had fungus all over its entire body and after less than one tube I am now down to where the fungus is just on its ears. The other five kittens have fungus on their ears so I am working on their ears too.

I have not used a full tube between the six of them and the fungus is almost gone. They were born the first week of June and I mention this so to show that this product appears to be a safe product and it works.

I trust this product and I will definately use it in the future. Below is the review where the semi-feral kitty is mentioned who had a full body covered with fungus and is now clear. ———————————————— one tame, one semi-feral short hair “Cat” i had one cat with a nose type fungus looking spot.

this product cleared it up within less than a week. i have another cat that is covered all over his body with a fungus looking type situation. i am using this product on him. it is not yet cleared but it looks better.

he is a semi-feral kitty and i am not able to apply this every single day as i have to wait til he comes around and where i see him. i have used two full tubes on him and i have three more tubes left.

i have to skip days so i think this is making it harder.

I’ve tried a spray from another pet website to treat my cats ringworm but him being a cat, he hated the spray to the face! So I looked for a cream and found this! Let me tell you that I LOVE this product!! I noticed a difference in a single day of applying it to the affected area! So great full of this product! Please try it out for your furry friend!!.

Sorry, I need this cream today and I thought I would have a chance to say that I wanted it delivered today. That’s ok. I will search for another store. I still love you WALMART!! Please don’t feel bad.

You are always my first choice.

This is a great product. I have very sensitive skin with multiple dermatologist-diagnosed problems, and I can even use this on my face with great results. I would highly recommend this. It is completely non-irritating.

Recently I noticed my heels became dry and cracked. I thought that the foot file and moisturizing creams will solve the problem. But it just aggravated the problem. This product worked a miracle. After one week my heels look healthy, soft to touch, no cracks.

My personal observation – there is a big difference between dry skin and cracked skin. Cracked skin is a sign of an incipient disease. If the skin of your feet is healthy, it renews naturally, you don’t need to use the foot file at all.

This product is good on a skin-to-skin situation and provides relief from burning – prevents a fungus situation. Am using it on an elderly person. My hands have improved too.

I had to say this is probably the best product that I have found in the several years and I have had a loop ileostomy colostomy. I don’t think there’s ever been a product that I’ve come across that were so quickly and is so comforting!.

I use this product for my mother in law who uses diapers at night. Has been a great experience relieving and avoiding fungus on skin.

Doe’s not appear to be all that effective on the fungus, but I will try another tube.

Used this on my husbands feet and it cleared up his foot fungus and hasn’t returned so far.

Have tried many different types of creams and ointments to take care of a chaffing problem that I have in my vaginal area during the summer months. This product is by far the best. Works quickly and helps to keep the area clear.

Would highly recommend to anyone who has a similar problem.

I got this for when I had my ectopic pregnancy and they had a few full sized products to take home. This one in particular caught my attention so I grabbed it. It helps with chafed skin, chapped or cracked skin, it works really well and a little bit goes a long way.

I’ve had this product over a year now and recommend it to all my readers. I mainly use it for my chafed skin. I’m a plus size woman and I have some of my baby weight gain that overlaps like wear I would get a tummy tuck in that area so it helps a lot when it’s needed.

Great product.
