- Terbimax Cream helps treat skin infections caused by many different types of fungi.

- Apply an amount sufficient to cover the affected area and 1 inch of the immediate surrounding skin.
- It can make your skin more sensitive to sun. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen and protective clothing when outdoors.
