Lamisil Cream (terbinafine) is a broad-spectrum antifungal medication applied topically to treat fungal or yeast infections on the skin.
The medication is highly effective at eradicating:
Because the cream is unable to effectively penetrate nails or hair, Lamisil tablets are typically preferred for fungal infections of the scalp, fingernails and toenails.
Lamisil is the most widely-recognized brand name for terbinafine cream in the world, though the medication is also available as a generic in many regions. Both the brand name and the generic version of the cream are available without a prescription.
In addition to creams and tablets, terbinafine is also available in gel, spray and powder form.
Say Goodbye to Fungi with Lamisil Cream

Lamisil Cream may enter the bloodstream if applied improperly; do not apply the cream to:
Ingestion of the cream should be considered a medical emergency in adults, children and pets.
