About Xpoterb 1% Dusting Powder
Xpoterb 1% Dusting Powder is a topical antifungal medicine used to treat a variety of fungal skin infections. It is prescribed to treat common conditions such as athlete's foot, jock itch, ringworm, and pityriasis versicolor. By treating the fungus that causes the infection, it helps your skin heal and relieves symptoms such as itching, redness, scaling, and irritation.
Apply Xpoterb 1% Dusting Powder regularly at the same time each day or as directed by your doctor. Before each application, wash and dry the affected area thoroughly. As this is a medicine for external use only, food does not affect how it works. Keeping the affected area clean and dry and wearing loose, breathable clothing may help speed up recovery.
While using this medicine, you may notice mild local side effects such as skin peeling, dryness, redness, itching, or a slight burning or stinging sensation where it is applied. These effects are usually temporary and settle as your skin adjusts to the treatment. Consult your doctor right away if you develop severe skin irritation, blistering, widespread rash, or signs of an allergic reaction.
Do not use Xpoterb 1% Dusting Powder if you have previously had an allergic reaction to terbinafine or any of the other ingredients in the product. Before starting treatment, tell your doctor if you have sensitive skin, eczema, or any other active skin condition affecting the treatment area.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using any other medicated creams, ointments, lotions, or herbal skin products because they may affect how this medicine works or increase skin irritation. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning a pregnancy, consult your doctor before using this medicine to ensure it is appropriate for you.
