Nail fungus is a serious infection that must be treated with potent medication. Many manufacturers offer private label nail fungus treatments that retailers can brand and sell to customers. The treatments come in different types, which include the following:
Lacquer
Lacquer nail fungus treatments work like regular nail polish. People apply the lacquer directly to the infected nail. The medication in the lacquer seeps into the nail bed to kill any lingering fungus. The thick, protective coating stops further fungus from growing in the nail bed. Most doctors recommend lacquer treatments for mild to moderate nail fungus infections. The most common types of nail fungus treatment lacquers contain are ciclopirox and amorolfine.
Solutions and Gels
Nail fungus treatment private label products also include gels and solutions. They have thinner formulas than regular nail polishes. The gel or solution seeps into the nail bed when people apply them to the infected nails. Some treatments have a brush applicator like regular nail polishes. Others come in bottles similar to nail polish, but users must use cotton pads to apply them.
People usually use gels and solutions to treat mild to moderate nail fungus infections. Gels and solutions are most effective when used with oral antifungal medications.
Tablets
Doctors prescribe tablets for more severe nail fungus infections. The oral medications help treat infections that don't respond to topical treatments like gels, polishes, and lotions. Some common types of nail fungus treatment tablets contain terbinafine and itraconazole. The drugs in the tablets kill the fungus by preventing it from making new cell membranes. Without a cell membrane, the fungus can't grow or multiply.
Lotion
Many private label nail fungus treatment manufacturers also offer lotions. Users only need to rub the lotion on the nail bed to treat the infection. The lotion contains active ingredients that fight nail fungus. It is very easy to use and pain-free.
Preparation:
Before applying the treatment, clean the affected area thoroughly. Wash the nails and skin around them with mild soap and water, then dry them completely. Any moisture can help fungus grow, so leave nails and skin dry for as long as possible after cleaning.
Application:
Follow the specific application directions provided with the fungus treatment product. Apply the treatment to the affected nails and surrounding skin. Do not miss any applications, as this can allow any remaining fungus to regrow or spread.
Refrain from removing nails:
Nail trimming may be tempting to remove infected parts physically. However, this risks further spreading the infection. Let the new, healthy nail grow in at its own pace. Continued treatment is usually needed until the infected nail fully grows out and a new, healthy one takes its place.
Protective measures:
Take care not to spread the fungus to others or other nails. Wear sandals in public showers and pools, and avoid bare feet.
Patience:
It takes time for fungus treatments to work. Affected nails grow slowly - especially fingernails. Continue applying the medication exactly as directed for as long as advised, even after symptoms seem to improve. This helps ensure the fungus is fully destroyed.
Product Safety:
Over-the-counter and prescription nail fungus treatments are safe and effective when used precisely as directed. They undergo rigorous testing to ensure they kill toenail fungus without harming surrounding skin or nails. Possible side effects like irritation are usually minor. Following the instructions helps the medication work best to eliminate the fungus and prevent regrowth. Be sure to ask the doctor or pharmacist any questions about proper use.
