Description
Overview of the medicine
Terbisol-1 Cream is an antifungal medication used to treat a variety of fungal skin infections.
Uses & Indications
Dosage

How to Take
For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area thoroughly before applying a thin layer of cream and rubbing it in gently. Wash hands before and after application.
Mechanism of Action
Terbinafine inhibits squalene epoxidase, an enzyme involved in fungal ergosterol synthesis. This leads to a deficiency of ergosterol and an intracellular accumulation of squalene, resulting in fungal cell membrane disruption and cell death.
