Oral terbinafine, an allylamine antifungal, is a first-line treatment for onychomycosis due to its high efficacy. Clinical trials and meta-analyses confirm its superiority over placebo and azoles like itraconazole for achieving clinical and mycologic cure, with lower recurrence rates. Standard regimens involve daily doses of 250 mg for 6 weeks (fingernails) or 12 weeks (toenails). Pulse dosing offers an alternative, but continuous therapy typically yields better results. Side effects are usually mild, including headaches, gastrointestinal issues, and taste changes, though rare severe reactions like liver toxicity can occur. Baseline liver enzyme monitoring is recommended for extended treatments.
