TEXIFEN (Terbinafine (1% w/w))

Texifen Ointment is designed to address various fungal infections affecting the skin and nails, such as ringworm. This topical treatment operates by eliminating the fungi responsible for the infection. For optimal results, it is intended solely for external use and should be applied as per the guidance of a healthcare professional. Prior to applying the ointment, ensure that the affected area is properly cleaned and thoroughly dried. It is crucial to wash your hands both before and after using the product to maintain hygiene. Complete the full recommended course of treatment, even if symptoms improve, as premature discontinuation may allow the infection to persist or exacerbate. Be aware that some common reactions at the site of application may occur, including sensations of burning, irritation, itching, redness, and skin peeling. These effects are typically mild; however, consult your healthcare provider if they cause discomfort or persist longer than a few days. Avoid letting the ointment come into contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. In case of accidental exposure, rinse the area immediately with copious amounts of water. If there is no noticeable improvement after four weeks of treatment, it is essential to inform your healthcare provider. Generally, systemic medications taken orally or via injection should not interfere with this topical treatment, but it is advisable to disclose all medications currently in use. Additionally, inform your doctor if you have previously experienced any allergic reactions to similar topical agents. Pregnant or nursing individuals are encouraged to seek medical advice before using this product.
