Cutis Lotion 20ml (terbinafine Hydrochloride 1%)
Description
Cutis Lotion 20ml — Terbinafine Hydrochloride 1% | Broad-Spectrum Antifungal | Rx
Cutis Lotion by Tabros Pharma contains Terbinafine Hydrochloride 10mg/g (1%) — a prescription broad-spectrum antifungal indicated for fungal skin infections including tinea, pityriasis versicolor, and cutaneous candidiasis. Terbinafine is fungicidal: it inhibits squalene epoxidase in the fungal sterol biosynthesis pathway, causing accumulation of toxic squalene and fungal cell death.
Composition
- Terbinafine Hydrochloride: 10mg/g (1%)

Dosage & Administration
