    antifungal medication treating skin, hair, and nail infections

    Terbinafine, commonly known by the brand name Lamisil, is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections of the skin, hair, and nails. It works by inhibiting the enzyme squalene epoxidase, which is essential for the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes, thereby leading to the death of the fungal cells.
