Lamifen 1% Cream15Gm

Lamifen is a cream used to treat skin fungal infections. It belongs to the class of antifungal medications and contains the active ingredient Terbinafine (TERBINAFINE). This cream is primarily used to treat fungal infections affecting the skin, including athlete's foot, ringworm, and other fungal infections.

Terbinafine (TERBINAFINE) works by inhibiting a specific enzyme in fungi called squalene epoxidase, leading to the accumulation of squalene within the fungal cell. This accumulation causes the death of the fungi, helping to eliminate the infection. The cream shows high effectiveness in treating fungal infections and is considered a reliable option for many patients due to its rapid action and low side effects.
