Terbinafine
This antifungal medication is used to treat fungal infections of the nails and skin, most commonly nail fungus (onychomycosis) and ringworm. It works by interfering with the production of a substance called ergosterol, which is essential for fungal cell membranes. Oral treatment courses can last several weeks to months, and liver function should be monitored.
