Product Description

 

Terbiderm 125mg Tablets are an oral antifungal medication designed for the treatment of various fungal infections, particularly those affecting the nails and skin. The primary active ingredient is terbinafine, a powerful allylamine antifungal that works by inhibiting a key enzyme in the fungal growth process. This action prevents the fungus from producing a substance essential for its survival, which ultimately leads to its elimination.

Unlike topical treatments, Terbiderm 125mg Tablets work systemically from within the body to effectively target the source of the infection. This makes them a highly effective option for persistent or widespread fungal infections, especially onychomycosis (fungal nail infections). A doctor’s prescription is required to ensure proper diagnosis and dosage for safe and effective treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

 

Q1: What conditions do Terbiderm 125mg Tablets treat? Terbiderm is primarily used to treat fungal infections of the nails (onychomycosis) and skin, such as ringworm (tinea corporis), athlete’s foot (tinea pedis), and jock itch (tinea cruris).

Q2: How long is the treatment for fungal nail infections? The duration of treatment for fungal nail infections is typically longer than for skin infections. It can range from 6 weeks to 3 months or more, depending on the severity of the infection and the rate of nail growth.

Q3: What are the common side effects of this medication? Common side effects can include headache, mild digestive upset (nausea, diarrhea), or a rash. More serious side effects are rare but can include liver problems, so it is important to report any unusual symptoms to your doctor immediately.

Q4: Why do I need to finish the entire course of treatment? It is crucial to complete the entire course of treatment, even if your symptoms clear up. Stopping early can allow the fungus to regrow and the infection to return, often in a more resistant form.

Q5: Is it safe to take this with other medications? You should inform your doctor about all other medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking. Terbinafine can interact with certain drugs, so your doctor will ensure it is safe to use with your current regimen.
