    Author: Fuerst JF, Cox GF, Weaver SM, Duncan WC.
    Journal: Cutis; 1980 May; 25(5):544-6, 549. PubMed ID: 6991217.
    Abstract:
    A double-blind parallel study comparing tolnaftate cream with undecylenic acid ointment and a placebo ointment in the treatment of symptomatic tinea pedis was conducted on the warm, humid Texas Gulf Coast. In one hundred and three patients studied, both the clinical and mycological effects of the two antifungal agents were indistinguishable. Both were significantly more effective than the placebo.
