###What symptoms or conditions can be treated with Lamisil AT 1% Cream?
Lamisil AT 1% Cream can be usedto treat fungal skin infections like athlete's foot (tinea pedis) and dhobie itch/jock itch (tinea cruris). Athlete's foot usually appears on the feet, especially between the toes, causing scaling or cracking of the skin, mild swelling, blisters, or weeping ulcers. Dhobie itch appears in the groin and inner thigh area, which can spread between the legs to the buttocks, or up towards the stomach, appearing like a bordered rash with blisters.
### What is the active ingredient and how does it work?
Lamisil AT 1% Cream contains terbinafine hydrochloride as the active ingredient, which is an antifungal agent used to treat skin infections caused by fungi. Terbinafine hydrochloride works by inhibiting the production of ergosterol, a component of the fungal cell membrane, resulting in cell death and preventing the growth and spread of the fungi causing the infection.
###How do I use Lamisil AT 1% Cream?
For athlete's foot and dhobie itch, apply the cream once a day for one week. Cleanse and dry the affected areas thoroughly before applying the cream in a thin layer, and gently rub it in. If used between the toes, buttocks or on the groin, the treated area may be covered with a light, fresh gauze strip, especially at night. Wash your hands and replace the cap on the tube after use.
###What are the possible side effects of Lamisil AT 1% Cream?
Like all medications, Lamisil AT 1% Cream can cause side effects, although not everyone will experience them.
