Itch Guard Plus is an over-the-counter antifungal medication primarily used to treat skin infections like jock itch, athlete’s foot, and ringworm. Unlike the standard formula, the "Plus" version contains Terbinafine Hydrochloride (1%), which kills the fungus faster by destroying its cell membrane, combined with cooling menthol to provide instant relief from itching and irritation. Key Details & How It Works • Active Ingredient: It features 1% Terbinafine Hydrochloride, a highly effective antifungal agent. • Soothing Relief: Contains menthol, which creates a cooling sensation to immediately soothe burning and itching. • Common Uses: Treats fungal skin infections in high-moisture areas, such as the groin (jock itch), between the toes (athlete's foot), and circular torso rashes (ringworm).
