Drug Details
Butenafine hydrochloride, commonly known as Lotrimin Ultra, is an antifungal cream designed to treat several types of fungal skin infections, including athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. Additionally, it is effective against pityriasis (tinea versicolor), a condition that causes discoloration of the skin on areas such as the neck, chest, arms, or legs. The cream works by inhibiting the fungus's ability to develop its protective covering, thereby stopping its growth. It is typically applied once or twice daily to the affected area for a few weeks. Common side effects may include a burning, stinging, or itching sensation at the site of application. It is important to note that Butenafine should not be used for treating fungal nail infections. Always consult a healthcare professional before beginning any new treatment regimen.
