Composition

• Terbinafine Hydrochloride 1% w/w

Mechanism of Action

• Terbinafine is an allylamine antifungal that inhibits the enzyme squalene epoxidase in fungal cells.
• This inhibition leads to accumulation of squalene, which is toxic to the fungus.
• At the same time, ergosterol synthesis is blocked, disrupting the fungal cell membrane.
• The combined effect kills the fungus and stops its growth, allowing the skin to heal.
