Curanail is the once weekly treatment for mild nail infections. Previously prescription-only, Curanail is used to treat fungal infections affecting the upper half or sides of the nail in up to two nails.
Curanail 5% Nail Lacquer contains 5% w/v amorolfine. It also contains: methacrylic acid copolymer, triacetin, butyl acetate, ethyl acetate and ethanol.
Each pack contains:- 3ml of Curanail nail lacquer - approximately 3 months supply. Note that the course of a treatment is usually between 6 months to a year (see below).
- re-usable plastic applicators.
- (Please note: the Curanail pack no longer contains antiseptic swabs or files. Click here for swabs and here for files)
Directions for each infected nail:
1) File down the infected area of the nail.
2) Clean the nail surface using a cleansing swab. (Express Chemist also sell Numark antiseptic wipes for 99p for 10 individually wrapped wipes. Alternatively, you may wish to try Cotton Wool with an antiseptic liquid such as TCP or Distilled Witch Hazel to clean the infected area before the application of Curanail).
3) Apply the Curanail nail lacquer over the entire nail surface using one of the re-usable applicators. Allow to dry approximately for 3 minutes.
Curanail 5% Nail Lacquer should be applied once weekly. It is important to continue using Curanail until the infection has cleared and healthy nails have grown back. This usually takes 6 months for finger nails and 9 to 12 months for toe nails. Treatment should be reviewed every three months.
