3. How to Use CanesMycospor Onicoset
Follow exactly the administration instructions of this medication as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. In case of doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.
Recommended dose:
Apply once a day to the infected nail, in sufficient quantity to cover the entire surface of the nail with a thin layer of ointment.
The treatment with the ointment should be applied carefully every day and should continue until no more fungus-infected nail substance can be lifted.
Usually, treatment lasts from 7 to 14 days, depending on the extent of the infection and the thickness of the nail.
Administration form:
Cutaneous use
Before the first application of the ointment, soak the infected nail in warm water for a few minutes to slightly soften the nail to be treated, and then dry it well. Apply the ointment to the infected nail, covering its surface with a thin layer. Then, the treated finger or toe will be covered with a dressing that will be left in place for 24 hours. After these 24 hours, the dressing will be removed and the affected finger will be washed for 10 minutes in warm water. After this wash, the softened part of the treated nail will be removed with the scraper included in the package; the treated nail will be dried and the ointment will be reapplied as described before, covering the nail with a new dressing until the next day.
No need to cover the skin around the nail. However, if irritation is observed, which is exceptional, before placing the dressing, the skin around the nail can be covered with an appropriate product such as zinc paste.
Once the nail is removed, the treatment should continue with another antifungal product to eliminate the fungus from the skin layer located under the nail. Before this, the doctor should evaluate if the infected part of the nail has been completely removed and, if necessary, perform a final cleaning of the area.
It is recommended to wash your hands after each application.
General hygiene measures should be taken to avoid the appearance of other infections or recurrences.
Usage instructions
1. Soak the foot or hand in warm water and dry well. | 2. Squeeze the tube slowly until a portion of ointment of the same length as the affected nail comes out. Apply the portion of ointment to the nail without pressing or massaging. | 3. Place half of the dressing under the finger. The dressings can be cut to the size of the nail. |
4. Fold the sides of the dressing upwards and press them well against the finger. | 5. Then, place the remaining half of the dressing over the nail, folding the adhesive surfaces downwards and pressing. | 6. Now the dressing is placed as a protective covering over the affected nail. Thus, the nail is kept for 24 hours with the dressing. |
7. After 24 hours, the dressing is removed, the foot or hand is soaked in warm water for 10 minutes, and then washed and dried well. | 8. With the scraper included, the softened nail is carefully removed. | |
The treatment following these instructions carefully should be repeated daily until all the infected nail is removed, which usually occurs within 7-14 days.
