MYKORED APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
VERRUCAE
Apply twice daily, directly onto the
verruca, or a cotton bud dipped in MYKORED may be used for application,
otherwise for difficult areas soak a small piece of cotton wool and tape
it on (It may be left like this for up to 2 hours).
To increase the
effectiveness of the treatment it is recommended that your chiropodist
removes the top layer of the verrucae at your initial consultation and
review progress every 2 -3 weeks.
Once the MYKORED has been applied no dressing is required. MYKORED will dry the verruca out and may cause it to lift up or even come away completely. When MYKORED has been applied any pain will reduce rapidly.
FUNGAL INFECTIONS
Apply MYKORED directly on the
infected area at least once daily, you might find it useful to use a
cotton bud dipped in MYKORED. For fungal infections of the nail, holding
the toe vertically and dripping Mykored at the tip of the toe will
allow the fluid to run under the nail and down the sides of the nail
bed. The length of time needed to treat the infection will vary based on
the severity of the infection and the age of the patient. Nail
infections take many months before the healthy growth replaces the
infected area. Your chiropodist will advise you based on your personal
progress.
When applying MYKORED to infected tissue it does not matter if it goes on to healthy skin or nails, it will not cause damage. Consult your chiropodist if you do experience any adverse reaction. Pregnant women should always consult their doctor before using any medication.
