Certain fungal infections can be treated with a Terbinafine Hydrochloride Tablet. Terbinafine hydrochloride is especially effective against fungal nail, skin and hair infections and is suitable for cats and dogs. This medication is usually well-tolerated, but it can be given with food to help reduce stomach upset.How it Works

Terbinafine is a type of allylamine antifungal that prevents the biosynthesis of ergosterol, which is a crucial part of the fungal cell membrane, by inhibiting the squalene epoxidase enzyme. This causes death of the fungal cell by interfering with the buildup of high concentrations of squalene, but not caused by deficiency of ergosterol.

Special Precautions

Keep out of reach of animals and children.

Overdose Information

Immediately contact your closest emergency animal hospital or vet.
