Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is Kolorex Foot & Toe effective for athlete's foot?

A: Kolorex contains horopito-derived polygodial which has demonstrated antifungal activity against tinea-causing dermatophytes and Candida species in laboratory studies. Many users find it effective for mild to moderate athlete's foot. For severe or persistent tinea, conventional antifungal treatments (clotrimazole, terbinafine) have more extensive clinical evidence. Consult our pharmacist if symptoms are severe or do not improve.

Q: How do I apply Kolorex Foot & Toe Care Cream?

A: Clean and thoroughly dry the affected foot and toe area before applying. Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected areas, including between the toes if affected. Apply twice daily as directed. Continue treatment for at least 2 weeks after symptoms resolve to prevent recurrence. Do not cover tightly with non-breathable dressings.

Q: Can I use Kolorex Foot Cream on toenail fungal infections?

A: Topical creams generally have limited penetration through the nail plate for established nail fungal infections (onychomycosis). Kolorex Foot & Toe cream is most effective for skin-based fungal conditions like athlete's foot and toe web tinea. For toenail fungal infections, specific antifungal nail treatments or oral medication under medical supervision are typically needed. Ask our pharmacist for advice.

Q: How long should I use Kolorex Foot & Toe Cream?

A: For active fungal infections, use consistently twice daily for at least 4 weeks — or as directed on the label. Continue for 1–2 weeks after apparent resolution to reduce the risk of recurrence. For maintenance prevention (e.g. in athletes prone to recurrent tinea), periodic application to high-risk areas may help reduce recurrence frequency.
