About TERADERM TABLET
TERADERM TABLET is used to treat fungal infections of toenails and fingernails. It is also used to treat tinea capitis (scalp ringworm). Fungal nail infections (onychomycosis) are common infections of toenails or fingernails that cause the nail to become thick, discoloured, or more likely to break.
TERADERM TABLET contains Terbinafine, which works by damaging the fungal cell membranes, which are essential for their survival as they prevent the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents.
Some people may experience diarrhoea, stomach pain, headache, and a change in taste or loss of taste. Most of these side effects of TERADERM TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Terbinafine, avoid taking TERADERM TABLET. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is recommended to consult a doctor before using TERADERM TABLET. If you have depressive symptoms such as feeling worthless or sad, loss of interest or energy in daily activities, mood changes, restlessness, or a change in sleep pattern, inform your doctor immediately.

TERADERM TABLET is not recommended for patients with chronic or active liver disease. Your doctor may recommend a liver function test to monitor whether your liver is functioning effectively. This is done since the medicine gets metabolised by liver enzymes, and any inefficiency in liver function can lead to increased levels of TERADERM TABLET in the blood, resulting in increased side effects and toxicity. Therefore, inform your doctor if you have any liver disease or cirrhosis and about the medicines you may be taking, as taking TERADERM TABLET with another medicine can lead to liver toxicity.

The usual duration of treatment for Tinea corporis (ringworms), Tinea pedis (fungal infection in the foot), and Tinea cruris (fungal infection in the groin) is about 2 to 4 weeks, though it can occasionally be extended to 6 weeks. Treatment for fungal infections of nails typically varies from 6 to 12 weeks, with fingernail fungal infections taking up to 6 weeks and toenail fungal infections taking up to 12 weeks. However, the exact duration is determined by the doctor, depending on the site of infection, the type of infection, and the patient’s response to the therapy.
Caffeinated drinks such as tea and coffee should be taken with caution while on treatment with TERADERM TABLET.
