Lamisil AT Jock Itch Cream has been introduced by brand owner [Kato Healthcare USA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-flex-scape-gogglesunglasses-hybrid) as an over-the-counter (OTC) [topical antifungal product for athletes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/informed-sport) to help them combat the irritating condition. The product is formulated with terbinafine hydrochloride 1% that's rated to cure most instances of jock itch in as little as one week.
