Terbinafine Tablets 250mg
Terbinafine Hydrochloride is an oral synthetic allylamine broad-spectrum fungicidal agent on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It non-competitively inhibits squalene epoxidase, an essential early enzyme in fungal ergosterol biosynthesis. This induces intracellular accumulation of toxic squalene and depletion of ergosterol, causing fungal cell membrane lysis. Highly lipophilic and keratophilic, accumulating in stratum corneum, hair follicles, and nails. Indicated for tinea unguium (onychomycosis of toenails/fingernails), extensive tinea corporis/cruris, and severe tinea pedis.
