Description
Terbisil Lotion contains Terbinafine Hydrochloride, a topical antifungal medicine used to treat fungal infections on the skin. It works by killing the fungi responsible for conditions like ringworm, athlete’s foot, and jock itch.
Key Uses

How It Works
Terbinafine damages the fungal cell membrane, causing the fungus to die and preventing further spread.

Doctor Review
Dr. Salman Qureshi (Dermatologist): Terbisil Lotion works well for early or mild fungal patches that don’t require oral medication. It’s lightweight compared to heavy creams, so patients usually tolerate it better. Just remind patients that visible improvement may take 1–2 weeks with consistent use.
Storage
Store at room temperature, away from heat and sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
