Not classified as hazardous under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard. Full details in the Safety Data Sheet below.

Tolnaftate 1% is the active ingredient in Tinactin®. It is a thiocarbamate antifungal that stops the fungi responsible for athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm from building their cell membranes.

It is a non-azole antifungal, which makes it a natural alternative for people who have finished a full course of a clotrimazole or miconazole cream without improvement.

Antifungal creams in this category relieve the itching, burning, cracking, and scaling that come with these infections.

Using it well

• Wash and dry the area thoroughly before applying, then apply a thin layer twice daily. Labels typically direct 4 weeks for athlete's foot and ringworm and 2 weeks for jock itch — finish the course even if it looks better.
• Change socks daily, alternate shoes, and wear sandals in shared showers while treating athlete's foot.
• Not for scalp or nail infections, which usually need prescription treatment.

See a doctor for

No improvement after the labeled treatment period, an infection on the scalp or nails, cracked or bleeding skin, diabetes, a weakened immune system, or a rash that keeps returning.
