FAQs
Do I need a prescription for Terbisan Cream?
Yes. Terbisan Cream contains Terbinafine HCl 1%, a prescription-strength antifungal in Pakistan. It must be sold on the prescription of a registered medical practitioner.
Is Terbisan Cream fungicidal or fungistatic?
Terbisan is fungicidal — it kills fungi directly rather than merely inhibiting their growth. This distinguishes it from many other antifungal agents.
Does Terbisan Cream treat pityriasis versicolor?
Yes — Terbisan is effective against Malassezia furfur, the causative organism of pityriasis versicolor. Treatment duration is typically 2 weeks.
Is Terbisan Cream safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?
No. Terbinafine is excreted in breast milk and is not recommended for use during pregnancy or while nursing. Consult your doctor for safe alternatives.
How is Terbisan Cream different from Terbin or Terbiderm?
All three contain Terbinafine HCl 1%, but are manufactured by different pharmaceutical companies. Terbisan is Sante's formulation. Your dermatologist can advise on the most appropriate option for you.
