4.2 Posology and method of administration

Loceryl should be applied to the affected nails once or twice a week.
To apply the lacquer, the following recommendations should be carefully complied with:  a) Before the first application of Loceryl, the nails should be thoroughly cleaned. Using a nail file, the affected areas of the nail (particularly the surface), are filed down as much as possible.
Care must be taken not to file the periungual skin.
 b) The surface of the nail should then be cleansed and degreased using a cleansing swab provided, and all remaining lacquer removed.
 c) The lacquer is applied over the entire surface of the affected nail with the reusable applicators and the applicator cleaned before treating another nail to avoid contaminating the lacquer. The applicator must not be wiped off on the edge of the bottle.
 d) The applicator is cleaned with one of the swabs provided. The bottle must be kept tightly closed.

The same process is repeated for each affected nail.

Treatment should be continued without interruption until the nail is regenerated and the affected area is cured clinically and free of any fungus.


The required duration of treatment depends essentially on intensity and localization of the infection and the growth rate of the nails. In general, it is six months for finger nails and nine to twelve months for toenails.
Special instructions:

• The same nail files must not be used for healthy nails.
• Before each new application, the affected nail is filed if necessary, and always cleaned with the cleansing swabs to eliminate any remaining lacquer.
• When working with organic solvents (thinners, white spirit, etc.), waterproof gloves must be worn to protect the layer of Loceryl medicated nail lacquer on the nails.
