Infud 1% Cream

Infud 1% Cream, available under the brand name Lamisil, is used for the treatment of various fungal infections. It has shown effectiveness against conditions like athlete’s foot, jock itch, pityriasis versicolor, and ringworm. It can be administered orally or applied topically as a cream or ointment.

Terbinafine primarily acts as an antifungal agent, and when used as a cream or ointment, it can also help alleviate symptoms such as itching, burning, cracking, and scaling associated with fungal infections. When applying the cream or ointment, it should be used on clean, dry skin.

Avoid applying the cream or ointment to the eyes, nose, mouth, or intimate areas. It is typically used once daily, preferably at the same time each day. Do not use it on nails or the scalp unless directed by a doctor. Continue using the medication until symptoms have reduced and for a few additional days to prevent the infection from returning.

This medication is generally well-tolerated and rarely causes serious side effects. Allergic reactions are infrequent.

During treatment with the cream, avoid contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth. Nursing mothers should refrain from using it on breast tissue. Inform your physician if your eyes or skin turn yellow or if you experience irritation, itching, or burning.

Avoid using occlusive dressings at the same time as this therapy. Achieving the full clinical effect may take several months because it requires time for a new nail to grow.

Patients should not be considered treatment failures until they have been symptom-free for 2-4 weeks after completing the course of treatment. Gastrointestinal side effects typically improve with continued use.
