TURBOFINE 250

TURBOFINE 250 combination of Terbinafine IP(250mg) is an antifungal medication used to treat a variety of fungal infections. It is particularly effective against infections of the skin, nails, and hair. Terbinafine works by inhibiting the growth of fungi, providing relief from symptoms and promoting healing.

Uses :

  • Tinea Infections: Terbinafine is commonly prescribed for treating tinea infections, including athlete's foot (tinea pedis), jock itch (tinea cruris), and ringworm (tinea corporis).

  • Scalp Ringworm: Terbinafine is also used to treat tinea capitis, a fungal infection of the scalp.

Mechanism of Action :

  • Fungal Growth Inhibition: Terbinafine works by inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase, which is crucial for fungal cell membrane synthesis. This leads to the accumulation of squalene, which is toxic to fungi, thus inhibiting their growth and proliferation.
