Medicines have benefits and some have risks. Always read the label and use only as directed. If symptoms persist or you have side effects see your health professional. Brands and generics both contain the same active ingredient(s) and are medically equivalent. Some brands are marketed under different names by the same manufacturing country depending on the country of origin.
APO-CICLOPIROX, 8% w/w, nail lacquer is used to treat fungal infections of the nails. The active ingredient ciclopirox penetrates the nail plate to reach the fungal pathogen. Ciclopirox has a fungicidal action against all relevant pathogens responsible for fungal infections of the nails.
DIRECTIONS:
- Before starting treatment, remove any loose nail or nail pieces using nail clippers or nail files. If you have diabetes or problems with numbness in your toes or fingers, talk to your doctor before trimming your nails or removing any nail pieces.
- Apply APO-CICLOPIROX every other day (bedtime is best) to all affected nails with the applicator brush provided. Application may be reduced to not less than twice weekly in the second month of treatment and to once weekly from the third month of treatment onwards. Apply APO-CICLOPIROX evenly over the entire nail and the skin right around the nail. Where possible, APO-CICLOPIROX should also be put on the bottom side of the nail and the skin beneath it. Let APO-CICLOPIROX dry (about 30 seconds) before putting on socks or stockings. After putting on APO-CICLOPIROX, wait 8 hours before taking a bath or shower. When you are finished putting APO-CICLOPIROX on your nail(s), put the brush back into the bottle and close the cap tightly. Avoid getting the brush dirty. Keep the tightly closed bottle in its carton.
- Apply APO-CICLOPIROX over the previous coat.
- Once a week (every 7 days), remove APO-CICLOPIROX with commercial nail polish remover. Remove as much as possible of the damaged nail using scissors, nail clippers, or nail file.
