A member asked:
How far apart do i take a terbinafine tablet and contraception pill? because the pharmacist said i had to be cautious taking them together or something like that.

No interaction found: Hi there, I looked up interactions between the two and no interaction was found. Please kindly note that terbinafine is an ANTIFUNGAL medication not an ANTIBIOTIC which is known to reduce the efficacy of combined contraceptive pills. Please double check with the pharmacist regarding the dosing instructions.
