I think this might fall until the category of giving medical advice. Perhaps you can call the Walmart pharmacist for your answer.

Most are all the same. Zoles.

Pretty much work the same. Its one of those things. Consult the Pharmacist.

The "Doctor's Book of Home Remedied" suggests half water and half hydrogen peroxide in a spray bottle. Spray on and let dry. Works for me.

That creates a basic environment. Standard conservative treatment is acidic (ie vinegar compresses for ringworm).

I digress, the pharmacist is trained to advise customers on OTC medications. The physician has already given recommendations. Is there a reason you trust the advise of anonymous strangers on an internet forum over that of this doctor?
