What's that?: If by "non athletes foot" you mean a foot without a fungal infection, then there's no reason to use an anti fungal medication. But if you mean a fungal infection in a non-athlete, then yes, it's ok.

Non?: Athletes foot means fungus on the skin of your feet. Since athletes get them more often due to perspiration. You could still get fungus even if you sit on the couch all day. If your feet itches and has a rash on it use lotrimin ultra or Lamisil (terbinafine) cream. If it doesnt get better in two weeks see a podiatrist or dermatologist.
