POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
The nail lacquer should be applied to the affected finger or toe nails
once weekly. Twice weekly
application may prove beneficial in some cases.
The patient should apply the nail lacquer as follows:
1.
Before the first application of Loceryl, it is essential that the
affected areas of nail (particularly the
nail surfaces) should be filed down as thoroughly as possible using
the nail file supplied. The
surface of the nail should then be cleansed and degreased using a
cleaning pad (as supplied).
Cosmetic nail lacquer may be applied at least 10 min after amorolfine
5% nail lacquer application.
Before repeat application of amorolfine 5% nail lacquer, any remaining
nail lacquer, and cosmetic
nail lacquer if any, should be removed carefully, then the affected
nails should be filed down again
as required, and at any rate be cleansed with an alcohol soaked swab
to remove any remaining
lacquer.
_Caution:_ Nail files used for affected nails must not be used for
healthy nails.
2.
With one of the reusable applicators supplied, apply the nail lacquer
to the entire surface of the
affected nails and allow it to dry. After use, clean the applicator
with the same cleaning pad used
before for nail cleaning. Keep the bottle tightly closed.
For each nail to be treated, dip the applicator into the nail lacquer
without wiping off any of the
lacquer on the bottle neck.
