Tolnaftate is an antifungal medication that fights infections caused by fungus. Tolnaftate topical (for the skin) is used to treat infections such as athlete's foot (tinea pedis), jock itch (tinea cruris), and ringworm (tinea corporis).
Description Tolnaftate belongs to the group of medicines called antifungals. It is used to treat some types of fungus infections. It may also be used together with medicines taken by mouth for fungus infections. Tolnaftate is available without a prescription.
Tolnaftate is used to treat fungal conditions such as jock itch, athlete's foot and ringworm. [2] Tolnaftate was discovered by Teruhisa Noguchi in 1962 while he was working for the Nippon Soda Company.
Topical tolnaftate is commonly used to treat and prevent athlete’s foot and treat ringworm, which are skin conditions that can cause itching, burning, and cracking.
Tolnaftate stops the growth of fungi that cause skin infections, including athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
