Iran-Made Nano-Based Nail Polish Treats Fungus
The nano-based product allows for the slow release of the drug onto the nail surface and is an effective solution for the treatment of fungal nail infections (onychomycosis).
This topical antifungal medicine contains the active ingredient amorolfine (5%), a compound derived from morpholine that inhibits key fungal enzymes, stops the process of sterol synthesis and helps eliminate the pathogen.
After application to the nail, this medicinal compound creates a transparent and colorless layer that adheres well to the nail surface and is resistant to daily washing and bathing.
Nail fungus is a common infection of the nail. It begins as a white or yellow-brown spot under the tip of your fingernail or toenail. As the fungal infection goes deeper, the nail may discolor, thicken and crumble at the edge. Nail fungus can affect several nails.
If your condition is mild and not bothering you, you may not need treatment. If your nail fungus is painful and has caused thickened nails, self-care steps and medications may help. But even if treatment is successful, nail fungus often comes back.
Nail fungus is also called onychomycosis. When fungus infects the areas between your toes and the skin of your feet, it's called athlete's foot (tinea pedis).
