Lamisil, containing terbinafine hydrochloride, is generally considered the most effective over-the-counter antifungal cream for treating fungal infections.
Other effective antifungal creams:
- Butenafine: Can be more effective than other antifungal creams that prevent fungal growth, like clotrimazole.
- Tolnaftate and Amorolfine: These are considered the most potent topical antifungal agents.
- Ketoconazole: A cream primarily used for fungal skin infections, including yeast infections and tinea versicolor.
It's important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment, as the most effective cream for your fungal infection may depend on the specific type and severity.
