Description
Tebina 125 MG Tablet DT is an antifungal medicine. It is used to treat fungal infections like athlete's foot (itchy, scaly, and white patches between the toes), jock itch (red, itchy, and ring-shaped rashes in the groin, the area where the upper thigh meets the lowest part of the stomach), ringworm (red, itchy, and circular-shaped rashes with clear skin in the middle affecting the skin, scalp, or nails), and nail infections. This medicine works by killing the fungi by damaging its cell membrane (protective covering) and making it weaker. Thus, it prevents the spread of fungal infections. Tebina 125 MG Tablet DT shows side effects like nausea, vomiting, skin rash, headache, loss of appetite, etc. These side effects are usually mild and subside with time.

If you stop taking this medicine early, the infection may reappear or worsen, which may be difficult to treat. Tebina 125 MG Tablet DT should be used with caution if you have liver or kidney problems. Your doctor may monitor your liver function regularly during treatment with this medicine. Inform your doctor if you notice the yellow colouring of your eyes or skin, dark urine, or stomach pain. Tebina 125 MG Tablet DT may interact with other medicines and cause undesired effects.
