LOCERYL NAIL LACQUER — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Amorolfine 5% w/v (as amorolfine hydrochloride) medicated nail lacquer

Amorolfine is a topical antifungal that inhibits sterol synthesis in fungal cell membranes by blocking enzymes involved in ergosterol production. This disrupts the fungal cell membrane, stopping fungal growth and leading to clearance of infection over time.

For external use on nails only. File the affected nail surface (use separate file for infected nails), clean/degreae with an alcohol swab, then apply a thin layer of lacquer over the entire affected nail using the applicator. Allow to dry (~3–5 minutes). Typically apply once or twice weekly as advised by a doctor; continue until healthy nail regrows (often 6 months for fingernails and 9–12 months for toenails). Remove old lacquer before reapplying.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
