If you are experiencing excessive dryness of skin after applying this drug then you are advised to use a skin moisturizer.

No, Terbinaforce Plus Cream alone should not be used for ringworm because it is a fungal infection of the skin caused by fungi such as Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum and Terbinaforce Plus Cream is not an antifungal agent and it is not effective against fungi. Hence Terbinaforce Plus Cream should not be used for the treatment of ringworm. For the treatment of ringworm, you can use a combination of Terbinaforce Plus Cream and antifungal drugs such as miconazole and fluconazole.
