Terbinafine Hydrochloride, the active ingredient in Lamisil Lotion, is an allylamine antifungal presented as a 1% lotion for topical use. It treats superficial fungal infections such as athlete’s foot, ringworm and tinea versicolor in both adults and children by disrupting fungal cell membrane synthesis, leading to eradication of the pathogen.
