About Curanail
Key points
- Use once weekly
- Treats mild fungal nail infections
- Results in 6 months to 12 months
What is Curanail?
Curanail fungal nail treatment is a medication used once weekly to treat fungal nail infections (onychomycosis). An infection can cause your nails to become thick and colourless, and in some cases can cause mild pain or discomfort. Curanail works to kill the fungi that causes this infection, allowing for the healthy nail to grow back.
How effective is Curanail?
This treatment is very effective when used correctly over an extended period. It is important to use the treatment as directed until the infection is completely gone to ensure full growth of the healthy nail. Not doing so can risk the fungal infection coming back. Complete treatment can take around 6 months for fingernails, or 9 to 12 months for toenails.
Treatment Timeline
1 to 3 months
Using Curanail once a week as directed, will allow Curanail to infiltrate the nail allowing it to start killing the fungus.
3 to 6 months
As treatment of the infection continues, you may start to see the growth of the healthy nail below. Continuous use of the treatment as directed will allow the new nail to grow back properly and reduce the risk of re-infection.
6 to 9 months
Continuing the use of Curanail will improve the health of the new nail as it grows. You will now notice the infected nail growing out. The discolouration and thickness should also now be reducing as the new, healthy nail replaces the old one.
9 to 12 months
The infected area should now have completely disappeared and replaced with a new healthier nail. This process can take less time when treating fingernails.
How long does Curanail take to work?
Complete treatment can take around 6 months for fingernails and 9 to 12 months for toenails.
Curanail alternatives
Amorolfine 5% nail lacquer is an alternative fungal nail treatment, available over the counter. Curanail treats mild infections in up to two nails, whilst amorolfine treats multiple nail infections at the same time.
How to use Curanail
Before the first application, file down all infected areas of the nail including the nail surface as much as you can using the nail file provided. CAUTION: Do not use files that have been used for infected nails on healthy nails otherwise you risk spreading the infection. To further reduce risk of spreading the infection, ensure that no one else uses the files from your kit.
Use one of the swabs provided to clean the surface of the nail. Repeat step 1 and 2 for each infected nail.
Dip the spatula into the bottle of nail lacquer. The lacquer must not be wiped off the edge of the bottle before it is applied.
Apply the lacquer evenly over the entire surface of the nail Repeat this step for each affected nail Let the treated nails dry for approximately 3 minutes Wait at least 10 minutes before applying any cosmetic nail varnish if you wish to do so.
The spatulas provided are re-usable. However, it is important to clean them thoroughly after completing each treatment procedure, using the same swab you used for nail cleansing. Avoid touching newly treated nails with the swab. Close the lacquer bottle tightly. Dispose of the swab carefully as it is inflammable.
Curanail Dosage Instructions
You should apply the treatment once a week until the infection has cleared.
