Description
About Mycoderm Terbinafine 250mg Tablets
Mycoderm Tablets contain Terbinafine Hydrochloride 250mg, a potent oral antifungal from the allylamine class. It works by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes, eliminating dermatophyte infections at their source. Available on prescription across Pakistan via Derma.pk.
Mycoderm is indicated for systemic fungal infections including onychomycosis (nail fungus), tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea corporis (ringworm), tinea cruris (jock itch), and scalp dermatophytosis. As an oral agent, it achieves tissue concentrations that topical preparations cannot — making it the treatment of choice for nail and scalp infections.
For courses longer than six weeks, your doctor will advise periodic liver function monitoring due to rare hepatotoxicity risk. Always complete the prescribed course even if symptoms resolve earlier to prevent recurrence. This is a prescription-only medicine — consult your physician before use.
