At the Chemist’s

Patient: Hi, can I speak with the pharmacist?

Pharmacist: Hi, I am Mrs Smith, the pharmacist on duty. What can I help you with today?

Patient: My feet are burning and itching, and the skin is peeling off. I’m starting to tear my hair out. How can I make the burning and itching stop?

Pharmacist: Do you mind if I examine your feet?

Patient: Not at all.

Pharmacist: OK, you said that both feet are burning and itching?

Patient: Yes!

Pharmacist: OK, I am going to remove your socks and shoes. Let’s take a look at your feet.

Patient: Do I have athlete’s foot?

Pharmacist: Yes, the skin is scaly between your toes and on the soles of your feet. This scaliness, in combination with the burning and itching, is characteristic of a fungal infection called athlete’s foot.

Patient: What should I do?

Pharmacist: I recommend that you apply Lamisil cream twice a day to the affected area. You will use this cream for 2 weeks.

Patient: Can I stop using it if the burning sensation and itchiness go away?

Pharmacist: It is important that you continue to use the cream for the entire 2 weeks, even if the burning and itching stop before then. If you don’t use the cream for 2 weeks, the infection may return. Do you have any questions?

Patient: Do I need to do anything to my feet before I put the cream on?

Pharmacist: You should wash and completely dry your feet, even between the toes, before applying the cream. In addition, you should change your socks daily and should consider wearing different shoes, as the fungus may possibly be living in your shoes if they are old or if they are constantly worn.

Patient: Where can I find the Lamisil?

Pharmacist: Follow me. I’ll show you where we keep it.
