Terbinafine may cause dizziness or drowsiness in some individuals. Avoid driving or operating machinery if you experience these side effects.
Terbinafine should only be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding if the benefits outweigh the potential risks. Consult your doctor before taking terbinafine if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Dosage and use of terbinafine in children should be determined by a doctor.
Terbinafine is primarily metabolized in the liver, and renal impairment usually does not affect the pharmacokinetics. However, patients with severe renal impairment should be monitored closely.
