Miconazle may also be used to treat angular cheilitis, Different forms of the medications exist for different treatments, such as orally, topically, or vaginally. Be sure to read the package instructions or ask a doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure about any use.

Should I use clotrimazole cream or miconazole nitrate to treat athletes foot?

It's surprisingly difficult to get information on this, considering how common athletes foot is. Clotrimazole and miconazole seem to be equally effective at treating athletes foot.2,3 Miconazole seems like it works quicker, but is also more concentration dependent1. Any differences are marginal, and I would use whichever is cheaper.A better choice would be an allylamine like terbinafine (Lamisil). Topical allylamines have a relative effectiveness of 3.6 vs. placebo, whereas topical azoles only have a relative effectiveness of 2.1.2,31. EM Scott et al.
