A member asked:

What should i look for in a good house hold foot fungus killer?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Miconazole lamidil: Topical antifungals contain certain ingredients such as miconazole, Lamisil (terbinafine) , tolnaftate or undecalynic acid. They all work but may not be able to totally eradicate the fungus. You may need prescription strength fungal creams.
