Onychomycosis is a fungal disease affecting the nail plates of the hands and feet. It can have a prolonged course, and sometimes it can be disposed of only through a comprehensive treatment. The causative agents of the disease are fungi-dermatophytes and microspores. As a rule, the affected organism has weakened immunity, deficiency of vitamins and minerals, and this becomes a consequence of fungus development. People with constant stress are also prone to onychomycosis.
The defeat of the nail occurs gradually and has several stages. The earlier treatment begins, the easier it is to cure the fungus.
Today, for the treatment of the nail fungus use tablets, sprays and creams.
Fungoterbine - cream for the treatment of nail fungus
Fungoterbine is an antifungal cream for nails, but the preparation also has the form of a spray.
The main active substance cream - terbinafine hydrochloride - in 1 g of cream contains 10 mg of active ingredient. It belongs to the group of allylamines and is effective against a wide spectrum of fungi.
This substance disrupts the biosynthesis of fungi, which results in the accumulation of squalene, which causes the death of fungi.
Gradually, this leads to a decrease in their numbers in the lesion, but often fungi are located in other parts of the body, and therefore it is advisable for serious lesions to apply not only local, but also general therapy.
