Terbiface 250 mg Tablet

Terbiface 250 mg Tablet is an oral antifungal medicine that contains 250 mg of terbinafine in each tablet. It belongs to the allylamine class and is used to treat fungal infections, especially infections of the nails and certain skin infections caused by susceptible fungi. Because it is taken by mouth, Terbiface 250 mg Tablet works through the bloodstream to reach fungi that may be harder to clear with topical treatment alone. This specific 250 mg tablet is a full-strength oral dose commonly used when a doctor determines that tablet treatment is appropriate.

How it works: Terbinafine works by blocking an enzyme fungi need to make ergosterol, an important part of their cell membrane. Without that protective membrane, the fungus weakens and dies, and the tablet form helps deliver the medicine throughout the body to reach infected skin, nails, or hair follicles.

Terbiface 250 mg Tablet is the standard adult tablet strength for oral terbinafine, so it is the same strength many clinicians use when they prescribe terbinafine tablets. Since there are no other strengths or forms listed for this brand, this product represents the full tablet dose your doctor may choose for an infection that needs systemic treatment rather than a cream or a lower-dose option.

• Fungal nail infections (onychomycosis)
• Ringworm of the body or groin
• Athlete’s foot
• Other terbinafine-susceptible fungal skin infections

• Swallow Terbiface 250 mg Tablet whole with a glass of water.
• Take it at the same time each day if your doctor prescribes it once daily.
• You may take it with or without food; taking it with food can help if it upsets your stomach.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet unless your pharmacist or doctor specifically tells you to.
• Use it for the full prescribed course, even if the infection looks better sooner.
• If you miss a dose, take it when you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose; do not double up.

Each Terbiface 250 mg Tablet provides 250 mg of terbinafine. For most approved oral uses, the usual adult dose is 250 mg once daily, but your doctor decides the exact schedule and duration based on the type of infection and your health status. Do not take more than the amount prescribed; the maximum daily dose for this tablet strength is typically 250 mg unless your prescriber gives different instructions.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
