Curanail 5% w/v Medicated Nail Lacquer (3ml): Our purchasing team has managed to secure an excellent deal from our suppliers and this is being passed on to you, our loyal PharmacyKwik customers.
What is Curanail?
Curanail contains the active ingredient amorolfine, an effective antifungal agent previously only available on prescription. Curanail kills a wide range of different fungi that can cause nail infections. This means that, for the majority of sufferers, Curanail can actually cure the infection. In addition, Curanail comes in the form of a nail lacquer (like a nail varnish), which only needs to be applied once a week. This combination of effectiveness and convenience makes Curanail a first choice over the counter treatment for mild fungal nail infection.
Each Curanail pack contains:
This 'new' pack isn't just a re-brand. It now comes as a complete kit:
HOW TO CURANAIL:
Read the information leaflet inside the Curanail pack. If you have any questions (or if you have diabetes, a weak immune system or poor circulation) speak to your doctor or pharmacist first
CURANAIL GETS TO THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM.
Fungal infections occur deep within the nail, making them difficult to treat. That's why Curanail remains active in the affected area (and is watertight and soap-resistant) for up to a week. This gives its active ingredient time to penetrate the nail bed, and target the source of the infection.
(You'll need to keep using Curanail until the infected nail grows out.)
How effective is Curanail?
Amorolfine nail lacquer is an effective treatment that has been shown to clear 85% of fungal infections of the fingernails and 76% of toenail infections (defined as clinical cure plus improvement) with 6 months treatment. Treatment for a fingernail infection is expected to take 6 months (the time for a new nail to re-grow) and about 9-12 months for an infection of the toenail.
Who can use Curanail?
Who cannot use Curanail?
If these apply to you, you should see a doctor or podiatrist. People with diabetes, a weak immune system or poor blood circulation should check with their doctor or pharmacist before using Curanail.
Curanail comes in a pack containing a small bottle of lacquer, cleansing swabs, reusable applicators and nail files. Nails should be treated once a week. Treatment of mild fungal nail infections may take time, because the nail has to grow out before the infection is completely cured. For this reason, it is very important that you continue to use Curanail once weekly until the infection has cleared and a healthy nail has grown back. This takes about 6 months for fingernails and around 9–12 months for toenails. Sticking to treatment is very important.
