terrasil Tinea Versicolor Cream (0.5oz)

Wow. I have been struggling with oral thrush since having a tooth extracted about 6 weeks ago. The problem moved to my face once I started to get rid of it inside my mouth. I was really unsure if this would help or make it worse, but read this antifungal is safe to use with fluconazole. Well it’s only the next morning but my face is on the road to recovery. One treatment last night and the redness is gone and the cracking around my mouth is healing. Thank you so much!

A little goes a long way. Worked as advertised. In my case did not dry skin - used for 1 week twice daily, and a second week once daily. Used Terrasil soap alongside this treatment, and after for maintenance. Skin looked clear after a few days, followed my doc’s recommendation to continue use for 14 days. Excess product washed out of clothing/bedding. I’ve used this product a few times. The smell isn’t great, definitely a medicine smell, and I understand this is part of the fact the product can’t contain things that would activate yeast.

Bottom line: If you battle with tinea versicolor, give this a whirl. I have had to deal with it for 20 years and this was the fastest topical treatment and more effective than other "prescription strength" topical solutions. The only thing as quick as this was the oral medication, but that is hard on the liver. More detail: I have only used this for treatment on my arms so far. I used this in conjunction with the Terrasil Tinea soap. My method: Shower in the morning, allowing the soap suds stay on the skin for several minutes before rinsing. After fully dried, I applied a thin layer of this ointment. In the evening, I washed with the soap and again allowing the suds to sit for a few minutes before rinsing. Again, after fully dried apply a thin layer of ointment. Right before going to bed, I would blot the remaining oil to prevent it from staining bedding. I do recall reading at least one other reviewer that stated this caused their tinea versicolor to spread. I can tell you that I initially thought this was happening to me, but I continued using and it all went away. At least in my case, I believe the "spreading" was only some tinea versicolor that wasn't initially as visible to become visible while it was getting treated. Pros: Quick - got rid of the Tinea Versicolor in just under a week. No walking around smelling like sulfur as with some topical treatments. Not a prescription so easy to get. Cons: The ointment will stain some fabrics which is why I haven't tried it in other areas. The treated area will turn "brown" when exposed to the sun. The color will go away. Questions for the Manufacturer: Instructions/answers could be clearer. Because of the oiliness and the staining, can this product be as effective if it were blotted dry after a period of time? Such as 'apply a thin layer and can be blotted dry after an hour'. Just an example if you know how long it needs to be in place to be effective. Is the oil portion of this essential to the effectiveness? It would be great if you had a cream or something that could just be rubbed in and not worry about an oil that stains fabric or rubs off on whatever is touched.

Worked so much better than other brands. Used other brands that would keep the Tinea from spredding but never really knocked it out. This stuff eliminated the Tinea after a couple of applications.

It works to clear up rashes along with Cortizone-10 Maximum Strength Intensive Healing Itch Relief Lotion for Eczema. White patches are wait and see as it could take weeks, months, or years apparently.

This stuff is terrible. I burned and made it so much more painful. Had to immediately wash it off.

This tinnea product may work well for some. But you need to know that it is very sticky with beeswax if you want to live with that on your skin, it stays on a very long time. As I live in the tropics I didn't particularly want this coating on my skin in the heat during the day, although the odor is pretty inoffensive. It is suggested to be applied morning and night but I didn't want to get it on my sheets either. So it's not the best concoction for my lifestyle and without applying it regularly I can't attest to its effectiveness. I cannot distinguish between sun damage (small scars) and tinnea, although use of selsun gold and tinnea soaps seem to have diminished the white spots somewhat. I am going to try the liquid applicator of tinnea treatment to see if that works better for my situation, although iving in the tropics may mean I'm a spotted person for life. Also this product began to smell rancid after months at tropical temp, so I put it in the fridge but now it seems stronger--not a deal breaker, it is still a pretty neutral odor once it is on, but it may work better for someone who vacations in the tropics and picks up tinnea and then uses this product in a more temperate climate. And who hasn't had it for many years. And isn't in their seventies with sun damage.
