Terbiforte 1% Terbinafine Antifungal Cream - 10g Tube
Dermatophyte fungal infections like athlete's foot and body ringworm can be persistent and recurrent, especially in warm climates. Terbiforte Cream delivers high-efficacy allylamine antifungal action. Containing 1% Terbinafine Hydrochloride, it actively kills fungal cells rather than merely inhibiting their growth, providing faster symptom relief and significantly shorter treatment durations for patients in East Africa.
How to Use / Operate
Clean and dry affected skin. Apply a thin layer of cream once or twice daily, massaging gently into the affected area and surrounding healthy skin. Standard treatment is usually 1 to 2 weeks.
