How it Works?
Renafine 250 Tablet contains terbinafine (250 mg).
• Terbinafine (250 mg): It acts by inhibiting an enzyme called squalene epoxidase. This enzyme is crucial for the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. By obstructing this enzyme, terbinafine disrupts the integrity of the fungal cell membrane, ultimately leading to fungal cell death.
