Many scientists and doctors have linked RA to the mindbody process, which helps to clarify the possible true nature of many autoimmune disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis and other closely related conditions, like ankylosing spondylitis, lupus and gout.
Azoles are metabolized by cytochrome P-450 3A (CYP 3A) and may inhibit the elimination of other drugs metabolized by this enzyme, such as antiarrhythmics, cortisol, cyclosporin, estradiol and tacrolimus. Terbinafine is not an azole; it does not affect CYP 3A and it has few drug interactions.
Terbinafine is approved for the treatment of fingernail and toenail fungus, as well as ringworm of the scalp. By entering the blood and moving into the skin and nails, it acts on certain types of fungi to either kill them or slow down their growth.
