Active composition
Terbinafine inhibits squalene epoxidase, disrupting ergosterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes.
Medical applications
Lamifin Lotion contains Terbinafine 1% w/v, an antifungal agent belonging to the allylamine class, indicated for the topical treatment of dermatophytic infections such as tinea corporis, tinea cruris, and tinea pedis. Terbinafine exerts its antifungal effect by inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase, leading to a deficiency of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting membrane integrity and causing fungal cell death.
Lamifin Lotion is applied once or twice daily to the affected area after cleansing and drying the skin, with the duration of treatment typically ranging from one to four weeks depending on the infection site and severity. It is well tolerated with minimal systemic absorption; however, local adverse reactions such as mild burning, itching, or irritation may occur. Lamifin Lotion should be used with caution in patients with known hypersensitivity to terbinafine or any excipients.
It is contraindicated in individuals with a history of allergic reactions to allylamine antifungals. Use during pregnancy and lactation should be under medical supervision. Proper hygiene and avoidance of occlusive dressings are recommended to enhance therapeutic outcomes. Lamifin Lotion offers effective topical management of superficial fungal infections, promoting rapid symptom resolution and preventing recurrence.
