General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi & Welcome.
I appreciate your concern for your beloved mother.

The topical creams/lotions containing Terbinafine, Clotrimazole, Miconazole, and Sertaconzole are alternative but equally effective antifungal medications for the treatment of fungal infection of the skin.

These medications are available OTC.

Hope this answers your query.
