About Funge Tablet 250mg
An antifungal tablet that treats ringworm, athlete's foot, jock itch and fungal nail infections.
Funge Tablet Uses
- Treats ringworm (tinea corporis) on the skin
- Clears athlete's foot (tinea pedis) between the toes
- Treats jock itch (tinea cruris) in the groin area
- Manages fungal nail infections (onychomycosis)
- Helps clear scalp fungal infections in some cases
Funge Tablet Benefits
- Reaches the infection through the bloodstream, not just the skin surface
- Works well for nail infections that creams cannot penetrate
- Needs a shorter treatment course than many older antifungals
Doctors in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad and Rawalpindi prescribe Funge Tablet often for patients with stubborn fungal nail and skin infections that do not respond to creams alone.
Terbinafine stops the fungus from building its cell wall. This weakens the fungus and lets the body clear the infection over several weeks.
Patients usually need a liver function check before starting, especially for longer nail infection courses. Anyone with liver disease should tell their doctor first.
