Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question? We’re here to help.
Is Lamisil 1% Foot Spray suitable for treating athlete’s foot?
Yes! Lamisil 1% Foot Spray is very suitable for treating athlete’s foot, a common fungal infection on the skin of the feet. The treatment directly targets the infected area, relieving symptoms such as itching, burning, and cracking of the skin. Consistent application of the medicine, as directed, can lead to improvement and relief from athlete’s foot symptoms.
Can Lamisil 1% Foot Spray be used effectively for toenail fungus?
While Lamisil 1% Foot Spray is primarily designed for skin infections like athlete’s foot, it may provide some benefit for mild cases of toenail fungus by reducing fungal spread on surrounding skin. However, toenail fungus often requires systemic treatment.
Is Lamisil 1% Foot Spray recommended for nail fungus treatment?
Lamisil 1% Foot Spray is not the first-line treatment for nail fungus due to the condition’s nature, requiring more penetrative antifungal treatments. However, it can be beneficial for preventing the spread of the fungus to adjacent areas and treating skin infections around the nail.
Directions
Always use this medicine exactly as described in patient information leaflet, or as advised by your doctor or pharmacist.
In most cases, Lamisil 1% Foot Spray is applied once a day, for one week only for all fungal infections. The following steps should be taken when using this medication:
- Cleanse and dry the affected areas thoroughly and wash your hands
- Remove the cap from the spray bottle (if using for the first time, press the pump a few times until you achieve an even spray)
- Spray enough of the solution from 5-10 cm to thoroughly wet the affected skin
- Replace the cap on the spray bottle and wash your hands
Even though you will not be using Lamisil 1% Foot Spray during the second week, full skin healing after the infection has cleared will continue for up to four weeks.
Side Effects
Lamisil 1% Foot Spray, like all medicines, can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. The most common side effects are generally mild and may include local reactions such as itching, burning, irritation, or redness at the application site.
In rare cases, an allergic reaction may occur which can be identified by:
- difficulty breathing or swallowing
- swelling of the mouth, face, lips, tongue, or throat
- severe itching of the skin, with red rash or raised lumps, hives or blisters
If you experience any of the above reactions, stop using the spray and seek medical help immediately.
How it works
Lamisil 1% Foot Spray stops the growth of fungi thanks to its active ingredient, terbinafine. This ingredient interferes with the ability of fungi to produce ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. Without ergosterol, the cell membrane breaks down, causing the contents to leak out, which kills the fungi and treats the infection. This action makes it highly effective against athlete’s foot and other fungal skin infections.
