Amorolfine Fungal Nail Treatment 5% Nail Lacquer 3ml

Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.

Unless otherwise prescribed by the doctor, Amorolfine 5% w/v is used as follows:

• Treat your infected nails as described below. NAILS SHOULD BE TREATED ONCE A WEEK.
• Once weekly application should continue for six months for fingernails and 9 to 12 months for toenails.
• Nails grow slowly so it may take 2 or 3 months before you start to see an improvement.
• It is vital to carry on using the nail lacquer until the infection has cleared and healthy nails have grown back.
• The following steps should be followed carefully for each affected nail:

Step 1: File the nail

Using a new file, gently file down the infected areas of nail, including the nail surface. Protect any healthy nails while you are doing this so that you don’t spread the infection.

CAUTION: Do not use the same nail file used for infected nails and healthy nails, as this could spread the infection as well.

To prevent the spread of infection, take care that no one else uses the files from your kit.

Step 2: Clean the nail

Use one of the swabs provided (or nail varnish remover) to clean the nail surface. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each affected nail.

Step 3: Apply the lacquer

Dip one of the re-usable applicators into the bottle of nail lacquer. The lacquer must not be wiped off the edge of the bottle before it is applied. Apply the lacquer evenly over the entire surface of the nail. Repeat this step for each affected nail.

Let the treated nail(s) dry for approximately 10 minutes.

Step 4: Clean the applicator

The applicators provided are re-usable. However, it is essential to clean them thoroughly after completing each treatment procedure, using the same swab you used for nail cleansing. Avoid touching newly treated nails with the swab. Close the nail lacquer bottle tightly. Dispose of the swab carefully as it is inflammable.
