Lamisil AT Cream: Terbinafine Hydrochloride 1%
Lamisil AT contains terbinafine hydrochloride 1% cream for labeled athlete's foot, jock itch and ringworm use, with location-specific foot regimens.
A topical terbinafine hydrochloride 1% cream labeled for most athlete's foot, jock itch and ringworm. The label explicitly excludes nails, scalp and vaginal yeast infections.
comparing terbinafine 1% topical treatment, users matching a labeled skin indication such as athlete's foot, jock itch or ringworm
nail fungus, scalp ringworm, vaginal yeast infections
Key tradeoff: The labeled treatment duration varies by infection location, and the skin cream should not be generalized to nail or mucosal infections.
This is a factual fit-and-tradeoff summary, not a product recommendation. Formula, device and brand claims remain manufacturer claims unless the cited source is explicitly regulatory or independent testing.
What the current label establishes
Lamisil AT Cream contains terbinafine hydrochloride 1%. The current DailyMed label lists treatment of most athlete’s foot, jock itch and ringworm.
The label is unusually useful for comparison because it separates athlete’s foot by location: between-the-toes treatment is listed for 1 week, while bottom-or-side-of-foot treatment is listed for 2 weeks, both at twice-daily application for ages 12 and older.
Where the label stops
The same label says not to use this cream on nails or scalp or for vaginal yeast infections. That distinction matters: a familiar antifungal ingredient does not make every formulation appropriate for every fungal infection.
For nail-specific context, see Nail fungus. For skin-fungus context, see Athlete’s foot and Ringworm.
What to compare
The location-specific athlete’s-foot course is a key distinction: the same cream has different labeled durations for between-toe versus bottom/side disease. Compare the active, labeled body sites and treatment course with Lotrimin clotrimazole 1%, Lotrimin Ultra butenafine 1%, and Tinactin tolnaftate 1%.
