💡 Snel antwoord
Fintop Cream is butenafine 1% w/w topical cream — a benzylamine antifungal closely related to terbinafine, with the same squalene epoxidase target and the same fungicidal action against dermatophytes. Approved for tinea pedis, tinea cruris, tinea corporis, and pityriasis versicolor. Once-daily application; short courses. Modest activity against Candida (less than imidazoles) — use clotrimazole / miconazole for cutaneous Candida.

Toepassingen
Fintop Cream (butenafine 1% w/w cream, Glenmark) is a benzylamine antifungal — pharmacologically very similar to terbinafine. Active against dermatophytes (Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, Microsporum) and Malassezia (pityriasis versicolor). Modest activity against Candida.
| Indicatie | How to use |
|---|---|
| Tinea pedis — interdigital | Once daily × 4 weeks (or twice daily × 1 week) |
| Tinea cruris | Once daily × 2 weeks |
| Tinea corporis | Once daily × 2 weeks |
| Pityriasis versicolor | Once daily × 2 weeks |
Hoe aan te vragen
- Wash and dry the affected skin.
- Apply a thin layer once daily; cover the visible lesion + 2 cm.
- Wash hands after.
- Complete the full course.
Hoe het werkt
Butenafine inhibits squalene epoxidase — the same target as terbinafine. Squalene accumulates and ergosterol is depleted, killing dermatophyte cells. Highly lipophilic with prolonged retention in the stratum corneum.
Bijwerkingen
- Common — local burning, stinging, irritation, contact dermatitis.
- Uncommon — allergic contact dermatitis, worsening rash.
Zwangerschap & borstvoeding
Limited human data. Minimal systemic absorption. For non-urgent indications, prefer clotrimazole. Avoid breast application during breastfeeding.
Veelgestelde vragen
How is butenafine different from terbinafine?
Pharmacologically very similar — both inhibit squalene epoxidase, both are fungicidal against dermatophytes. Clinical efficacy is comparable for tinea pedis, cruris, corporis. Choose by local availability and tolerance.
Can I use butenafine for Candida?
Limited activity. For cutaneous Candida (intertrigo, balanitis, nappy rash with thrush) use clotrimazole or miconazole.
Why is my tinea pedis course so much longer than my friend’s?
Different formulation, different organism, different anatomy. Interdigital athlete’s foot can clear in 1 week with high-potency creams; moccasin (sole) tinea takes longer because the keratin layer is thicker.
Is Fintop Cream the same as Mentax / Lotrimin Ultra?
Yes — Mentax (Bertek/Mylan) and Lotrimin Ultra (Bayer/MSD) are the original brands of butenafine. Fintop Cream is bioequivalent.
My athlete’s foot itches less but the skin still looks bad — should I keep applying?
Yes — itching settles before the skin appearance normalises. Continue the full course. Skin can take another 2–3 weeks after the last application to look normal as keratinocytes turn over.
Can I share this cream with my partner?
No — each person should have their own tube to avoid recontamination. Treat both partners simultaneously if both have tinea cruris or tinea corporis.
Why is this ‘once a day’ instead of twice?
Butenafine has a long retention time in the stratum corneum — once-daily application maintains fungicidal levels for 24+ hours. Twice-daily is sometimes used for shorter courses (1-week tinea pedis).
Will it stain my clothes?
No — butenafine cream is white and absorbs into skin without staining. Wait a few minutes after application before dressing.
What if my rash spreads while I’m using this?
Reconsider the diagnosis. Spreading rash on antifungal could mean (a) wrong diagnosis (eczema, contact dermatitis), (b) allergic reaction to the cream, or (c) very extensive tinea needing oral therapy. See a clinician.
Can I use butenafine on my face?
Yes for facial tinea, but face is more often seborrhoeic dermatitis or rosacea. Confirm the diagnosis before using antifungals on the face. Avoid eyes.
