Pharmacological action
Terbinafine – the active substance of Fungoterbine®, is allylamine and has a wide spectrum of antifungal action.
Active against dermatophytes such as Trichophyton (T. rubrum, T. mentagrophytes, T. tonsurans, T. verrucosum, T. violaceum), Microsporum canis, Epidermophyton floccosum. At low concentrations, it has a fungicidal effect against dermatophytes, molds (Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, etc.) and some dimorphic fungi. The effect on yeast fungi of the genus Candida and its mycelial forms can be fungicidal or fungistatic, depending on the type of fungus. Terbinafine is also active against Pityrosporum, the causative agent of the multicolored (pityriasis) depriving Pityriasis versicolor caused by Pityrosporum ovale.
Terbinafine disrupts the ergosterol biosynthesis in mushrooms in the early stages. This leads to a deficiency of ergosterol and to intracellular accumulation of squalene, which causes the death of the fungal cell. The action of terbinafine is carried out by inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase located on the cell membrane of the fungus. This enzyme does not belong to the cytochrome P450 system. Terbinafine does not affect the metabolism of hormones or other drugs.
Due to the presence of urea in the cream and spray, the drug has a moisturizing effect, promotes a deeper penetration of terbinafine into the skin and, thus, creates high concentrations in it.
For the spray in addition: the urea (urea), which is part of the spray, has a keratolytic (softening and causing rejection of the stratum corneum of the epidermis affected by a fungal infection). Urea promotes rapid recovery of the epidermis. Butylhydroxytoluene is an antioxidant that stimulates regeneration processes. When applied topically, it inhibits free radical reactions.
