Lotrimin Ultra Jock Antifungal Itch Cream

This stuff works great. It helped clear my jock itch within a couple of days of applying it twice a day. I will use it for another ~2 weeks to make sure it's all gone. If you need something for frustrating itch, this is it.

Works well, but a bit awkward to apply directly on the itch.

Works ok but need a stronger one

Best stuff I’ve found for jock itch

Excelent in satisfied.

Boy were my balls itching. This made it feel better. Nobody likes itchy balls this product will make your balls stop itching. Also I stopped using the towels at the YMCA. That might’ve been the source of my itchy balls.

2 things happened at the same time, and I was ignorant on both items. Unknowingly, the dr prescribed an anti-biotic that resulted in a full body rash. If you google the images of a drug allergy, that is what it looked like. The dr wanted me to take Advil, and let it run its course. With covid cases down, I was getting ready for a beach vacation and I tried on my 2-year old bathing trunks. It fit well and I planned to use them. A few days later, my jock area was red, bumpy, and itchy. It was more red and more itchy then the rest of my body, but I thought it was part of the allergic reaction to the anti-biotics, so I continued with the Advil. By the 4th day, the agony was unbearable. It looked like jock itch so I bought 10+ tubes of Lotrimum Ultra from amazon because the local CVS was sold out (so was the grocery store). I started to use it, but it was almost too late as the fungus spread to my hands, arm pits, and elbows. It spread because I thought that the fungus rash was the allergy rash, and I did not treat it with anti-fungal medicine right away. Plus, I did not think it was possible to catch a fungus infection from a 2 year old pair of swimming shorts. I was paying the painful price of not immediately treating the fungus with the correct medication. The product is sold in tiny tubes, and I was using a tube a day with no improvement. Because of the drug allergy rash, I did not know what was fungus and what was allergy. I was using a ton of medicine, and nothing was getting better. I was in so much agony, I was in tears when I called the dr. The rash just kept spreading, it was now on my wrist and forearms. After another 3 days of this pain, and no improvement, the Doctor finally agreed to prescribe me “professional medication.” He gave a steroid for the drug allergy rash, and prescription medication for the fungus rash. Please See the picture. I can say that the medicine that starts with a “K” helped my hands, chest, belly, and forearms. But it did not seem to work anyplace else. Any place where the skins rubs against itself, it did not seem to work. By the 8th day, the steriods cleared up the drug allergy rash, and the remaining rash was fungus. At least now I knew where to put the anti-fungus medication. But then I ran out of anti-fungal cream, and my insurance said it was too soon to refill the prescription. So I had to go back to OTC medicine. The Dr felt sorry for me, and he prescribed Nystatin powder, and advised me to use Lotrimum until the prescription can be refilled. I used the Lotrimum spray, and it went on dry and cold. It was very soothing, and gave complete coverage. But it was like a smoke bomb going off in the house. The over spray went everywhere. What a mess. Even with the open windows, it took a long time to clear the air. My wife made me apply the next few treatments in the privacy of our back yard. So I needed to switch to the Lotrimum Ultra Jock Itch Cream. Meanwhile, I am upset with Bayer from my original purchase and I see that they have a 100% satisfaction policy (or your money back). I call them, and I speaking with a nice young girl of 18 from the Philippines- this is what she told me, and she is asking me questions for the next 25 minutes. She says that I will be contacted by Bayers Quality department, and they will refund me for my purchase. It’s been over a month and Bayer has never contacted me. So much for the integrity of this huge company. Getting back to my agony. I am now using Lotrimum Ultra cream in the tiny tubes, and I am using the Nystatin powder. I apply one coat of the the Ultra, with a top coat of the Nystatin. Every day, I notice the rash is shrinking in size, and fading in color. It is a powerful combination because the Ultra is a lotion that goes on sticky, and the Nystatin is a powder that is designed to dry up the places where men will sweat. I am going broke buying dozens of tubes of Lotrimum Ultra, it is such a tiny tube. I research anti fungal medicine and I learn that it is the same fungus for jock itch and athlete’s foot. Lotrimum Ultra is sold in a much larger tube, and it is 50% less expensive, but the box says “for athlete’s foot”. However, the fine print on the package says that this also cures jock itch, and that it uses the same active ingredient. I feel cheated. I could have saved $100s by buying that larger tube, but I did not know better. Please see the attached picture, it shows all of the medicines that I have taken. You can save a small fortune by buying the larger tube. To make sure that my family does not catch this, I was my clothes separately. I soak them in white distilled vinegar, and then wash them in a sterilization setting on the washer, along with a white vinegar as the fabric softener. I threw away all of my old swimming clothes and bought new. Every year, I will now throw away my swimming trunks, the pain is not worth the savings from re-using my swimming trunks. I am going on 6 weeks of treatment. The rash is almost gone. Only my arm pits have the rash, its been very hard to get rid of it, My Dr says that I should use the medicine for 5 days after the rash has disappeared to make sure that it does not come back. This has been a 6 week period of agony.

muy bueno

Good value. As advertised

Used canesten for 8 weeks and didnt clear up the fungus, it kept growing in size and red rash like, so I tried this instead and wow! This product worked within 2 weeks. It totally killed the fungus and made all redness go away. After 4 weeks using , the fungus was completely gone.

love it perfect keep it up the good work

Worked like a charm

I found this product worked fine! My pleasing to me was that it didn’t irritate to skin (or very little) like most similar remedies. Be careful not to overdo the amount you put on. It’s so good to find something that works without putting you through hell!
