How Does it Work

Erythromycin 2%/Ketoconazole 2%/Ciprofloxacin 1%/DMSO Nail Gel is a compounded formulation designed to combat fungal infections of the nails. This unique blend combines the antifungal properties of Erythromycin and Ketoconazole with the antibacterial prowess of Ciprofloxacin. The inclusion of DMSO serves to enhance the absorption of these active ingredients into the nail and surrounding skin, ensuring a targeted and effective treatment.

This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application. The gel-like consistency ensures that the medication adheres well to the nail and skin, providing a sustained release of the active ingredients. It is recommended to apply this medication directly to the affected nail and surrounding skin twice daily. Prior to application, it is crucial to ensure that the nail is completely dry.

The medication should be applied in a thin layer and allowed to dry before covering with a bandage or other covering. It is important to continue using the medication for the full course of treatment, even if the symptoms improve. Discontinuing the treatment prematurely may result in the infection returning or becoming resistant to the medication.

If the symptoms do not improve after two weeks of treatment, it is important to contact your healthcare provider. They may need to reassess your condition and possibly adjust your treatment plan. This formulation is a testament to the power of compounded medications, providing a targeted and effective treatment for nail fungal infections.
