Frequently asked questions
How long does it take to clear a nail infection?
Fungicros Cream may require a few days or weeks to show improvement in the symptoms of an infection. It's important to note that clearing an infection refers only to symptom improvement and not necessarily a complete cure. A full cure for a nail infection can take up to 6 months for fingernails and 9-12 months for toenails. Curing an infection requires time because it takes for the infected nail to naturally regenerate into a new one.
Can I stop taking Fungicros Cream when my symptoms are relieved?
While you may experience relief in symptoms, do not discontinue use of Fungicros Cream until completing the full course of treatment. It's crucial to consult your doctor if no improvement or symptoms persist even after 5 days of treatment.
What are the storage and disposal instructions for Fungicros Cream?
Keep the medication in its original container, tightly sealed, and stored according to the instructions on the packaging label. Do not dispose of unused medicine by any means, as it can be harmful to pets, children, or others.
