Econazole topical for Tinea Pedis "Similar to the other review. I had tried several other over-the-counter medicines, but it wasn't until my doctor prescribed me foot cream with econazole nitrate that my athlete's foot cleared up. I highly recommend a cream with econazole nitrate to get rid of stubborn athlete's foot."

Econazole topical for Tinea Corporis "My two-year-old son had ringworm. I tried 2 different over-the-counter creams and sprays, and even nail polish. He had it for over a month, then I tried Spectazole from the doctor, and it's almost gone in less than 2 days."

Econazole topical for Tinea Pedis "I had athlete's foot, which I caught from the gym, and it kept coming back with all medicines I used. It was a blistery, itchy, and weepy type of athlete's foot. The foot doctor gave me Spectazole cream, and almost within days, it was better. Within two weeks, it dried up nicely. I recommend it to all who have resistant athlete's foot. It's great."

For Cutaneous Candidiasis "Had angular cheilitis on corners of mouth off and on for over 2 months. At one point, it became much worse. I tried topical antibiotic ointments like Bacitracin and over-the-counter antifungal meds. Neither worked. I finally sought treatment from my MD. I was prescribed Econazole Nitrate Cream. After applying the cream for 2 days, my mouth sores were gone. I still continued to apply the med for another week. Have had no reoccurrence 2 weeks after I stopped applying the med."

For Cutaneous Candidiasis "I am a male who had a butt crack yeast infection. The econazole did nothing for me, allowing my issue to worsen. I wish my doctor would have prescribed Nystatin cream. I had success with that in the past."

For Tinea Corporis "I work in an elementary school. I thought I had something like poison ivy at first, but gradually it turned into a full ring. I have never had ringworm before, but had a pretty good idea that's what I was dealing with. I got the econazole nitrate cream, and it was gone in less than two weeks. Effortless and painless. Excellent cure!"

For Tinea Pedis "I’ve been using econazole for over a year. Most of the infection has cleared up, but this one area is very stubborn. When I stop using it, it gets very sore and blisters. That’s within two days of stopping. So I use it twice a day, every day. I just want it to work."

For Tinea Corporis "I had ringworm unknowingly for a couple of years. I thought they were fire ant scars. A 5-day supply of fluconazole 200 mg oral and econazole cream was prescribed. On Day 2 of treatment, the center of every site is almost back to normal. THANK YOU, ECONOZOLE AND FLUCONAZOLE!"

For Tinea Cruris "My doctor initially gave me clotrimazole, but it didn't work on me, and the itch is killing me. After almost a week, I still didn't have any improvement. Luckily, I found econazole nitrate, and within 2 days I feel so much better."

For Tinea Corporis "First day I cleaned up the affected area. Let it dry up for about 10 minutes, applied, and had no side effects. 2nd time cleaned the area up, dried it, and applied right after. Suddenly felt burning, stinging, and itchy redness. So I figured maybe I need to let it dry and let it be for a few before applying. However, the fungus (etc.) cleared up rather quickly, but I still have a little swelling on my earlobe (which is the effective area)."

For Tinea Versicolor "First day treatment great, looked almost gone. 2nd day, burning sensation and areas are looking red. I have neuropathy, don't have much feeling in my feet, so this scared me when my feet felt like they were burning."

For Tinea Versicolor "Very effective at fungus elimination; however, watch those side effects. Talk about burning and extraordinary sensitivity in a sensitive area."

For Tinea Corporis "Was prescribed econazole nitrate cream for suspected skin fungus. Used once, and it gave me hives. Boo! I've never had hives, and I'm 45. Seems like a good cream, just not for me."
