Uses

Terbinafine is used to treat certain types of fungal infections (for example, of the fingernail or toenail). It works by stopping the growth of fungus. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as antifungals.

How to use Terbinafine Hcl

Read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start taking terbinafine and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Take this medication by mouth with or without food as directed by your doctor, usually once a day. The dosage and length of treatment is based on your medical condition and response to treatment.

It may take several months after you finish treatment to see the full benefit of this drug. It takes time for your new healthy nails to grow out and replace the infected nails.

Continue to take this medication until the full prescribed amount is finished. Stopping the medication too early may allow the fungus to continue to grow, which may result in a return of the infection.

Tell your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse.
