TERBITOTAL
TERBITOTAL is an antifungal medication that is used to treat fungal infections of the skin such ringworm, jock itch, and athlete’s foot. The oral version of TERBITOTAL is used to treat fungal nail and skin infections. A fungus affects the tissue and causes infection, resulting in a fungal infection. It’s possible that fungal diseases are infectious (spread from one person to another). Ringworm is a contagious fungal illness of the skin that forms a rash that looks like a worm in a ring shape. Jock itch is a rash that appears in the groin, buttocks, and inner thighs and is itchy and red. Athlete’s foot is a scaly rash that starts between the toes and produces itching, burning, or stinging.
The membranes of fungal cells are critical for their survival because they prevent undesired substances from entering the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents. TERBITOTAL kills fungi by creating holes in the cell membranes of the fungi. As a result, the fungal infection is eradicated.
TERBITOTAL is only to be used externally. Using your finger, apply a tiny amount of TERBITOTAL in a thin layer to the clean and dry afflicted region. TERBITOTAL should not come into contact with your nose, mouth, or eyes. If TERBITOTAL comes into touch with these locations by mistake, thoroughly rinse with water. Itching, inflammation, and skin peeling may occur in certain persons. The majority of TERBITOTAL’s negative effects do not require medical treatment and fade away with time. Please visit your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
Please inform your doctor if you are allergic to TERBITOTAL or any other medications. If you are pregnant or nursing, you should seek medical advice before taking TERBITOTAL. Because TERBITOTAL (oral form) may make the skin more sensitive to sunlight, avoid or restrict sun exposure while taking it. When going outside, use protective gear and apply sunscreen to avoid becoming sunburned. Avoid smoking or getting near bare flames if you’re taking TERBITOTAL topically since the fabric (bedding, clothing, and dressings) that comes into touch with it rapidly catches fire and burns, posing a major fire hazard. Before taking TERBITOTAL, tell your doctor if you have psoriasis, systemic lupus erythematosus (an autoimmune illness), kidney or liver problems.

Infections with fungi
Medicinal Advantages
TERBITOTAL is an antifungal that is used to treat skin fungal diseases like ringworm, jock itch, and athlete’s foot. The oral version of TERBITOTAL is used to treat fungal nail and skin infections. The membranes of fungal cells are critical for their survival because they prevent undesired substances from entering the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents. TERBITOTAL kills fungus by causing holes in their cell membranes. As a result, the fungal infection is cleared, and the cracking, burning, scaling, and itching of the skin caused by infections are relieved.
Use Instructions
Take a tiny amount of TERBITOTAL on your finger and apply as a thin layer on the clean and dry afflicted region if you have been prescribed TERBITOTAL in topical form (cream or gel). TERBITOTAL is only to be used externally. TERBITOTAL should not come into contact with your nose, mouth, or eyes. If TERBITOTAL comes into touch with these locations by mistake, thoroughly rinse with water. If TERBITOTAL is prescribed as a spray, it is recommended that you spray TERBITOTAL while holding the bottle about 10 cm away from the diseased area. Apply TERBITOTAL to the top, sole, and sides of the foot, as well as between each toe, and let it dry for 1 to 2 minutes if using a lotion. If you’re taking TERBITOTAL by mouth, consume the entire pill with a glass of water. Take TERBITOTAL at the same time every day, with or without food. It should not be broken, crushed, or chewed. Sprinkle granules on a spoonful of soft, non-acidic meal or pudding and swallow whole without chewing. Mixing granules with apple sauce or other fruit-based dishes is not recommended.

Concerns of Patients
A fungus affects the tissue and causes infection, resulting in a fungal infection. It’s possible that fungal diseases are infectious (spread from one person to another). Ringworm is a contagious fungal illness of the skin or scalp that forms a rash that looks like a worm in a ring shape. Jock itch (also known as tinea cruris) is a fungus that creates an itchy, red rash in warm, moist parts of the body like the groin, buttocks, and inner thighs. Athlete’s foot (also known as tinea pedis) is a fungal illness that commonly begins between the toes, especially in those who sweat a lot and wear tight shoes. Athletes are the ones who get it the most. Itchy, burning, or stinging sensations are caused by a scaly rash.
FAQs
Fungal infection is a contagious skin ailment that spreads from person to person via direct skin-to-skin contact, contaminated soil or surfaces, and sick animals. As a result, it is advised to avoid close direct contact with the sick individual until the virus has cleared, as this can transmit the infection.
While using TERBINAFINE in oral form (tablets), you should avoid foods containing chocolate and caffeine, such as cocoa beans, tea, coffee, cola, and energy drinks, as this may enhance the negative effects of caffeine.
The oral version of TERBINAFINE (tablet) may increase skin sensitivity to sunlight. As a result, avoid or limit your exposure to the sun and sunlamps. To avoid sunburn, it is recommended that you use sunscreen and wear protective clothing when going outside. If you develop an extraordinary sensitivity to the sun that results in a rash while taking TERBINAFINE, see your doctor.
Because TERBINAFINE includes benzyl alcohol, which is known to cause allergic reactions, it may produce minor irritation and allergic reactions at the application site. If the irritation intensifies or does not go away, please see a doctor.
TERBINAFINE should be used for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. However, successful outcomes from TERBINAFINE (cream, gel, or spray) treatment can take 2 to 4 weeks, and oral treatment can take 2 to 6 weeks for fungal skin infections and 6 weeks to 6 months for fungal nail infections.
It is not suggested that you discontinue taking TERBINAFINE without first visiting your doctor, since this could result in a recurrence of illness. As a result, take TERBINAFINE for as long as your doctor has given it, and if you have any problems while taking it, contact your doctor.
