What to Expect
I used 3M Cavilon Antifungal Cream 3390 to help cure my athlete’s foot. I tried a few other antifungal creams before this one, but they didn’t work at all. I used this cream every day for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks of use, it helped to relieve the itch and my other symptoms. I liked the citrus scent and it was easy to spread. I didn’t see any improvements right away. I had to use the product over a 4-week period before I saw results. It worked better than the other athlete’s creams I used.

The Bottom Line
The product was easy to spread and had a citrus scent. It worked well at treating my athlete’s foot. What I didn’t like was the price, and the fact that there was no guarantee from the manufacturer. Another complaint I had is that it didn’t work right away. I didn’t see any immediate improvements. I had to use the cream for a month in order to see results.
