Description

Gris ODT 250mg Tablet contains Terbinafine 250mg, an antifungal medicine belonging to the allylamine class. It works by interfering with the production of essential components in fungal cells, helping stop the growth and survival of susceptible fungi. It is prescribed for certain fungal infections affecting the skin and nails.

Uses of Gris ODT 250mg Tablet

Gris ODT may be prescribed for certain fungal infections, including:

• Fungal infections of the skin
• Ringworm infections
• Fungal infections affecting the nails
• Other susceptible dermatophyte infections

The exact duration of treatment depends on the type and severity of the infection and should be determined by the doctor.

How Gris ODT Works

Terbinafine interferes with ergosterol production, an important component of fungal cell membranes. This damages the fungal cell membrane and helps eliminate the fungus responsible for the infection.

For some adult nail infections, oral terbinafine 250mg may be prescribed once daily, with treatment commonly lasting around 6 weeks for fingernail infections and 12 weeks for toenail infections. However, treatment duration can vary depending on the condition and clinical response.

Do not stop the medicine early or change the dose without consulting your doctor.
