What if there is onychomycosis? Used a lot of medicine, the effect is not obvious?

Treatment of onychomycosis includes topical and oral drugs:

1, oral drugs:

Itraconazole intermittent pulse therapy is one of the most effective treatment methods at present. If it is a fingernail, it takes 2-3 courses of treatment; If it is limb toenail, the time will be longer and it will take 3-4 courses of treatment. Terbinafine is a commonly used oral antifungal drug in recent years. The course of treatment is 6-8 weeks for fingernails and 12- 16 weeks for toenails. In addition, fluconazole is commonly used. When the local lesion is serious, it can be combined with topical drugs.

2. External drugs

Before external use, remove the diseased nail with a knife or nail file, and then wipe it with 30% glacial acetic acid solution or 3%-5% tincture of iodine twice a day for 3-6 months as a course of treatment until a new nail grows. You can also apply 40% urea ointment to the diseased nail, and then bandage it. After the diseased nail is softened and peeled off, it is coated with 8% ciclopirox amine and 5% Amoros Fenjia. The course of treatment is 2-3 months.

The course of onychomycosis is slow, and if it is not treated, it can be ill for life. In addition to antifungal treatment, we should also pay attention to strengthening nutrition and actively treat diabetes, nail trauma and other basic diseases that are easy to induce onychomycosis.
