Default Terbinafine Vs Terfinadine

Do not confuse
Terbinafine which is an anti-fungal that works by blocking the squalene epoxidase an enzyme necessary for the synthesis of Ergosterol of fungal membranes.
Terfinadine which is an anti-histamine removed from US market because of it's potential cardiotoxicity.
