Consistent application may help manage recurring infections and restore skin health.  Whether dealing with fungal growth between toes, in folds of the skin, or sweat rashes, this cream offers a comprehensive solution.

• Terbinafine Hydrochloride I.P. 1% w/w: Terbinafine Hydrochloride is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent widely used in fungal infections. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase, which is crucial for synthesising ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. By disrupting this process, Terbinafine Hydrochloride weakens the fungal cell membrane, accumulating toxic substances within the cell and ultimately causing its death. This targeted action helps manage fungal infections such as athlete's foot, jock itch, ringworm, and yeast infections. It is especially effective in areas prone to moisture and warmth, where fungal growth is common, relieving itching, scaling, and irritation.
   
• Menthol: This provides a cooling sensation that helps soothe itching and irritation caused by fungal infections. It might also reduce discomfort by creating a numbing effect on the skin.
