Product introduction

Sebifin Plus Cream is a prescription medicine containing Terbinafine (1%w/w) + Mometasone (0.1%w/w). It is used for fungal skin infections with inflammation, itching such as tinea corporis (ringworm) and tinea cruris (jock itch). It belongs to the group of medicines called Allylamine antifungal + topical corticosteroid.

For external use only. The dose and how long you take it depend on what you are being treated for and how you respond. Do not take more, or for longer, than your doctor has advised.

The side effects seen most often with Sebifin Plus Cream are burning, itching, redness and irritation. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.

Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how Sebifin Plus Cream works.

Uses

Fungal skin infections with inflammation
Itching such as tinea corporis (ringworm)
Tinea cruris (jock itch)

Benefits

In Fungal infection: Sebifin Plus kills the fungus or stops it growing, clearing infections that creams alone cannot reach. Improvement is gradual and the course must be finished for a lasting result.
In Ringworm: Sebifin Plus clears widespread or stubborn ringworm of the body, groin or scalp, stopping the itch and spread of the rash.
In Nail fungal infection: Sebifin Plus reaches the fungus inside the nail through the bloodstream, which is why a thick, discoloured nail can slowly grow out clear over months.
In Thrush: Sebifin Plus clears the yeast behind oral or vaginal thrush, relieving the soreness, itching and discharge.
In Eczema: Sebifin Plus calms the inflammation behind an eczema flare, quickly reducing the redness, itch and weeping so the skin can heal and the scratch-itch cycle is broken.
In Dermatitis: Sebifin Plus settles the red, itchy, inflamed skin of dermatitis, whether from an allergy, irritant or contact with something the skin reacts to.
In Psoriasis: Sebifin Plus reduces the thickening, scaling and redness of psoriasis plaques and relieves the itch.
In Skin inflammation and itching: Sebifin Plus relieves itching and inflammation of the skin from insect bites, rashes and reactions, so the skin can settle.

Side effects

Most side effects of Sebifin Plus are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

Burning
itching
redness
irritation
dryness
stinging
peeling
rash

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

How to use

For external use only. Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer once daily or as prescribed. Use for the shortest duration needed; avoid covering with tight occlusive dressings unless advised. Wash hands after use; avoid eyes, mouth and broken skin.

How it works

Terbinafine is an allylamine antifungal that inhibits squalene epoxidase, blocking ergosterol synthesis and causing fungal cell death. Mometasone is a topical corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, redness and itching by suppressing inflammatory mediators.

Warnings & precautions

Use only under medical advice as it contains a steroid. Do not use on face, groin or armpits for prolonged periods, or on acne/rosacea/perioral dermatitis. Prolonged/overuse may cause skin thinning, stretch marks, steroid-induced fungal worsening (tinea incognito), discoloration or secondary infection. Avoid in children unless prescribed. Stop and consult a doctor if no improvement, worsening, or signs of allergy occur.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause vomiting, liver injury and heart rhythm disturbance. It can suppress the body's own steroid production when it is used for a long time over large areas, especially in children. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Quick tips

Complete the full course, however long.
Keep the skin clean and dry, wash clothes and bedding in hot water, and treat family members if they are affected, or reinfection is very likely.
Apply a thin layer.
A fingertip's worth covers an area about the size of two adult palms.
Use a plain moisturiser generously alongside it; that is what keeps eczema away between flares.
Ask your doctor for a written plan of how long to use it and when to step down.
