In this review, we will take a closer look at a product called Micatin Antifungal Cream. The manufacturer claims that this cream can help eliminate the fungal infection that is responsible for skin rashes such as athlete’s foot, jock itch, and ringworm. Keep on reading to see what Micatin Antifungal Cream can do for you and if it is a product worth trying.
Ingredients
Micatin Antifungal Cream has been designed to help relieve cracking, burning, itching, and discomfort caused by fungal infections. Thus, the ingredients which the manufacturer claims can do just this is Miconazole nitrate 2%, the active ingredients. Other ingredients include benzoic acid, butylated hydroxyanisole, mineral oil, peglicol 5
oleate, pegoxol 7 stearate, and purified water. Based on our research, the product is lacking an essential ingredient that is the strongest fungal fighting agent. This clinically proven ingredient is 25% undecylenic acid. The absence thereof may cause the product to be less effective than other brands that do contain it.
Dosage
The manufacturer recommends that the user clean the affected areas and dry it. Twice a day, apply a thin layer of product over the affected area, once in the morning and once in the evening. For athlete’s foot and ringworm, use for 4 weeks every day and for jock itch, use for 2 weeks every day. Pay special attention when applying the cream between the toes. Also, wear well ventilated shoes and change shoes and socks at least once a day. Always supervise children.
Price
The product can be purchased for $7.49 for 0.5 ounces, from the manufacturer’s website. Free shipping is available for orders over $25. Unfortunately, the online stores provided on the manufacturer’s website do not seem to stock the product anymore. Nonetheless, $7.49 is a very low price and may indicate low-quality ingredients.
Guarantee & Feedback
After studying the manufacturer’s website, we were unable to find any evidence of a money-back guarantee. This means that you will be at risk when making a purchase from the manufacturer. First time customers will also not be able to get a refund if they use the product and find that it does not work. In addition to this, there are no customer reviews available. These aspects may be a result of the manufacturer not feeling confident in the product’s effectiveness.
Our Conclusive Review About Micatin Antifungal Cream
We have reviewed Micatin Antifungal Cream and found that the manufacturer does offer a few positive aspects concerning the product. The manufacturer ensures that the customer knows exactly when and how to use the product with the clear instructions that have been included.
Unfortunately, there are many more aspects that we have found that seem to be negative. First of all, it was quite unfortunate to see that the ingredients list does not contain the strongest clinically proven fungal fighting agent, undecylenic acid. Lack thereof may hinder the product’s effectiveness. Furthermore, the product is priced very low which may indicate low-quality ingredients. Though, the bigger concern is that the online retailers do not seem to stock the product anymore. Finally, the manufacturer fails to provide a guarantee and leaves their customers at risk. As a result, we are unable to safely recommend the use of Micatin Antifungal Cream as an effective athlete’s foot product.
