Hi Ridwaan,

Cantex T contains the active ingredient Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication commonly used in the treatment of fungal infections (of both humans and other animals) such as vaginal yeast infections, oral thrush, and ringworm. It is also used to treat athlete's foot and jock itch.

Side effects include skin rash, hives, blistering, burning, itching, peeling, redness, stinging, swelling, or other sign of skin irritation.

Lamisil contains the active ingredient Terbinafine hydrochloride, which is a synthetic allylamine antifungal developed by Novartis. As a 1% cream or powder it is used for superficial skin infections such as jock itch (Tinea cruris), athlete's foot (Tinea pedis) and other types of ringworm (Tinea corporis). Studies have shown that terbinafine cream works in about half the time required by other anti fungals.

Oral 250mg tablets are often prescribed for the treatment of onychomycosis of the toenail or fingernail due to the dermatophyte Tinea unguium. Fungal nail infections are located deep under the nail in the cuticle to which topically applied treatments are unable to penetrate in sufficient amounts. The tablets may, rarely, cause hepatotoxicity, so patients are warned of this and may be monitored with liver function tests stomach.

Canex T and Lamisil are very similar because they treat some of the same conditions and both contain an anti fungal. The side effects associated with Lamisil are basically the same as Canex T- but I believe there are actually more... the side effects can differ depending on whether Lamisil is taken by mouth or used as a cream.
