For athlete's foot lomotrin or lamisal?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Either one: Also let feet air out, dry thoroughly after bathing. If still a problem, see podiatrist.

Make sure it's: Really athlete's foot, not something else that can look like it. If it is a fungal infection, it's been by experience generic topical antifungals aren't as effective as the brands. I agree that both Lamisil (terbinafine) and lotrimin are equal in how well they work though. You need to use it for at least 30 days, even if it clears up in a few days since fungal spores live 30 days and don't wash out.

I have had athletes foot for months now. I have used the creams and even did 6 weeks of the lamisil tablets. All they do is keep it centralised to a specific area. This has not spread to my other foot as such. Any advise for further treatment?
