• Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat
• Severe skin rash

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to use amorolfina

• The nail varnish should not be applied to the skin surrounding the nail.
• Avoid contact of the varnish with the eyes, ears, and mucous membranes (e.g., mouth or nostrils).
• Do not inhale it.
• Wear impermeable gloves (resistant to water) when using organic solvents, such as paint thinners or turpentine, to prevent removal of the nail varnish.

Children and Adolescents

.

Using Amorolfina Viatris with Other Medications

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or may need to use any other medication.

Using Other Nail Products

Cosmetic nail varnish can be used, but you should wait at least 10 minutes after applying amorolfina before painting your nails.

The nail varnish should be carefully removed before reapplying amorolfina.

Amorolfina Viatris Contains Ethanol

This medication contains 482.3 mg of alcohol (ethanol) per mL. It may cause a burning sensation on damaged skin. Do not use it near an open flame, a lit cigarette, or some devices (e.g., hair dryers), as it is flammable.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication. Your doctor will decide whether you can use amorolfina.

3. How to Use Amorolfina Viatris

Follow the instructions for administration of this medication exactly as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.

Always use this medication exactly as described in this package leaflet or as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.

Amorolfina should be applied to the affected nails of the hands or feet once or twice a week, exactly as instructed by your doctor.

Instructions for Use

Do not use the nail files for affected nails on healthy nails, as this could spread the infection. To prevent the infection from spreading, ensure that no one else uses the files from your kit.

The provided spatulas are reusable. However, it is essential to wash them thoroughly with the same wipe you used to clean your nails, once you have finished the treatment steps. Avoid touching the newly treated nails with the cleaning wipe. Close the nail varnish bottle perfectly. Dispose of the wipe carefully, as it is flammable.

• Before reusing amorolfina, first remove any previous nail varnish or nail polish from your nails using a cleaning wipe, and then file your nails if necessary.
• Reapply the varnish as described above.
• Once dry, the varnish is not affected by soap and water, so you can wash your hands and feet normally. If you need to use chemical products such as paint thinners or turpentine, you should wear impermeable gloves (resistant to water) to protect the nail varnish.
• It is essential that you continue using amorolfina until the infection has disappeared and healthy nails have grown back. The duration of treatment is usually 6 months for fingernails and 9 to 12 months for toenails.

Your doctor will probably check how your treatment is progressing every 3 months.

If Amorolfina Viatris Comes into Contact with Your Eyes or Ears

If amorolfina comes into contact with your eyes or ears, rinse them immediately with water and contact your doctor or pharmacist, or go to the nearest hospital.

If You Accidentally Ingest Amorolfina Viatris

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicology Information Service, phone: 91 562 04 20, indicating the medication and the amount ingested.

If You Forget to Use Amorolfina Viatris

Do not worry if you forget to use amorolfina at the scheduled time. When you remember, start using the product again, exactly as before.

If You Interrupt Treatment with Amorolfina Viatris

Do not interrupt treatment with amorolfina before your doctor tells you to, as the infection may recur.

If you have any other questions about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
