Fungal Nail Treatment FAQs

• What is Amorolfine nail lacquer?

  Amorolfine nail lacquer is a topical application used to treat fungal nail infections (onychomycosis). The solution works by killing the fungi that cause fungal nail infection. Amorolfine can be applied to both finger and toenails.

• Does it work?

  Yes – Amorolfine medicated nail paint treats fungal nail infections like onychomycosis by stopping the growth of the fungi responsible for the infection allowing the infection to grow out with the nail. It can be applied to both finger and toenails.

• How often do I apply Amorolfine nail varnish?

  Amorolfine should be applied directly to the infected nail(s) once or twice a week, or as otherwise directed by your doctor.

• Where do I apply Amorolfine nail varnish?

  The solution can be applied anywhere on an infected nail, so long as the infection has not spread to the lunula, which is the white area at the base of the nail.

• How long does one bottle of Amorolfine last?

  One 5ml bottle contains enough solution for 150 applications. Because amorolfine only needs to be applied 1-2 times a week, one 5ml bottle should last the full duration of treatment. This is assuming you are treating 1-2 nails for up to 12 months.

• How long should I use Amorolfine nail lacquer?

  Treatment should be continued until the affected nail(s) are completely free of infection. On average, fingers nails require up to 6 months of treatment, whilst toenails can take between 9 and 12 months.

  Try not to be discouraged during the initial stages of treatment if there are no signs of visible improvement. Healthy nails only grow about 2mm every month so it can take for results to show through.

• Are the nail files, applicators, and swabs reusable?

  The nail files and alcohol swabs should be discarded after each use. However, the applicators can be reused, providing they have been wiped with the alcohol swab prior to use.

• If I am pregnant or breastfeeding, can I still use Amorolfine nail paint?

  Sadly, there is no data regarding the use of amorolfine during pregnancy. Also, there is no information on whether amorolfine passes into human breast milk. For these reasons, amorolfine should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. For further advice please consult your doctor.

• Why is Amorolfine nail lacquer sometimes more expensive than other fungal nail products?

  Amorolfine is a clinically proven fungal nail treatment. Because the solution is only applied 1-2 times a week, one 5ml bottle can potentially last for up to 12 months. Most cheaper alternatives are designed for daily use, which means you will need to buy multiple bottles to cover the same length of treatment. As a result, you end up spending more.

• How do I diagnose a fungal nail infection?

  A fungal nail infection occurs when fungus infects the nail bed. This causes several noticeable symptoms that make the condition easy to identify. Firstly, the nail can become discoloured, turning yellow or brown. Secondly, the texture of the nail can change, making it thick and brittle. In some cases, the nail can also separate from the nail bed.

• What are the side effects of Amorolfine nail lacquer?

  Generally there are not many side effects associated with using Amorolfine nail polish. One side effect can be a burning sensation around the skin where the varnish has been applied. If you experience any other unusual side effects, contact a doctor or pharmacist.
