Tifin Cream

Tifin Cream is a terbinafine antifungal cream manufactured by Salve Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd. Each tube contains terbinafine as labeled for topical use on the skin. It is used to treat certain fungal skin infections, including athlete’s foot, jock itch, and ringworm. This Tifin Cream works by stopping fungi from growing so the infection can clear.

How it works: Terbinafine blocks a fungal enzyme needed to build the fungus’s cell wall, which weakens and kills the fungus. As a cream, Tifin Cream delivers terbinafine directly to the infected skin so treatment stays focused where the fungus is growing.

Because Tifin Cream is a topical cream and there are no other listed strengths or forms of this brand, it is meant for direct application to affected skin rather than oral dosing. A doctor may choose Tifin Cream when a localized fungal rash needs targeted treatment with less body-wide exposure than an oral antifungal.

• athlete's foot
• jock itch
• ringworm
• fungal skin rash
• tinea infections

• Wash and dry the affected skin before applying Tifin Cream.
• Apply a thin layer only to the infected area and a small amount of surrounding skin.
• Rub the cream in gently until it is absorbed.
• Use it exactly as often and for as long as your clinician tells you, even if the rash starts to look better.
• Wash your hands after applying, unless your hands are the area being treated.
• Avoid getting the cream in your eyes, mouth, nose, or on broken skin unless your doctor says to do so.

Tifin Cream provides terbinafine as labeled in each tube for topical skin application. The exact amount to apply, how often to use it, and how long to continue depend on the type and severity of the fungal infection, and your doctor should decide that plan. Because this is a cream, there is no tablets-per-day maximum; the practical limit is the prescribed amount of topical application.

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