Product Info

Lamisil AT 1% Cream 7.5G.

For other Lamisil AT products see the Lamisil AT page.

Lamisil AT 1% Cream is for the treatment of fungal infections of the skin which are common, and can cause real discomfort.

Lamisil AT 1% Cream contains Terbinafine which is an antifungal, it works by killing the fungi causing your skin problem.

Lamisil AT 1% Cream is used to treat the skin problems caused by fungi in athlete's foot (tinea pedis), dhobie itch/jock itch (tinea cruris):

Athlete's foot (tinea pedis): appears only on the feet (usually both, but not always), where it often appears in between the toes. It can also appear on the instep, soles, or other areas of the feet. The most common type of athlete's foot causes cracking or scaling of the skin, but you may also have mild swelling, blisters, or weeping ulcers.

Dhobie itch (tinea cruris): appears in the groin and inner thigh area, usually on both sides but often with one side more than the other, where it can spread further between the legs to the buttocks, or up towards the stomach. Dhobie itch looks like a clearly bordered rash, which may have blisters.

If you are not sure about the cause of your infection, please talk to your pharmacist or doctor before using the cream and they will advise you

Directions

How to use Lamisil AT 1% Cream:

  • For external use only

For adults 16 years and over:

  • Clean and dry the area to be treated, and your hands
  • Place a small amount of cream on your finger
  • Apply just enough cream to put a thin layer of cream on the affected skin and the skin just surrounding it
  • Rub in gently
  • Wash your hands
  • Do not put it in the mouth or swallow the cream
  • Keep the cream away from your eyes

When used between the toes or buttocks, or on the groin, the treated area may be covered with a gauze strip, especially at night. If you do use gauze, use a fresh, clean gauze strip each time.

The treatment of athletes foot: Lamisil AT 1% Cream should be applied to the affected areas once or twice a day, for one week.

The treatment of dhobie itch: Lamisil AT 1% Cream should be applied to the affected areas once or twice a day, for one to two weeks.

If you forget an application of the cream, use the cream as soon as possible and then carry on as normal. If you only remember at the time of the next application, just apply that application and then carry on as normal.

  • It is important to try to use the cream at the correct times as missing applications could risk the infection returning
  • Do not stop using the cream before the recommended time as this may allow the infection to return or reduce the successful cure rate

Lamisil AT 1% Cream should start to improve your skin condition in a few days, although full skin healing after the infection has cleared will take longer, up to 4 weeks, because of damage caused during infection.

Lamisil AT 1% Cream will continue to work even after you have stopped using it at the end of the treatment period. Even though you will not be using the cream, improvement should continue.

If you have not noticed any signs of improvement within weeks of starting treatment, please see your doctor who will advise you.

Extra Info

Treatment can be helped by keeping the affected areas clean by regular washing, and careful drying without rubbing. Scratching the area, although it may be itchy, could cause further damage and slow the healing process or spread the infection.

Because these infections can be passed on to other people, it is helpful to keep your own towel and clothes, which are not shared by others. To protect yourself from re-infection, these should be washed frequently.
