How does Lamisil cream compare to oral antifungal medications for treating nail fungus. What are the most effective treatment options for onychomycosis. How long does it take to cure toenail fungus with topical and systemic therapies.

Understanding Nail Fungus and Its Treatment Options

Nail fungus, medically known as onychomycosis, is a common condition affecting millions of people worldwide. It can be stubborn and challenging to treat, often requiring prolonged therapy. While topical treatments like Lamisil cream are available, their effectiveness for nail infections is limited compared to oral medications.

What causes nail fungus?

Nail fungus is typically caused by dermatophytes, a group of fungi that thrive in warm, moist environments. These organisms invade the nail bed and nail plate, leading to discoloration, thickening, and brittleness of the affected nails. Toenails are more commonly affected due to their slower growth and increased exposure to moisture.

Topical Antifungal Treatments: Pros and Cons

Topical treatments, including Lamisil cream (terbinafine), are often the first line of defense against fungal infections of the skin. However, their efficacy in treating nail fungus is limited due to poor penetration through the nail plate.

Are topical treatments effective for nail fungus?

While topical treatments can be effective for superficial fungal infections of the skin, their efficacy in treating nail fungus is generally low. The thick nail plate acts as a barrier, preventing the medication from reaching the site of infection in sufficient concentrations. As a result, topical treatments are often recommended for mild cases or as an adjunct to oral therapy.

• Pros of topical treatments:
  • Fewer systemic side effects
  • Can be used for prevention
  • Suitable for those who cannot take oral medications
• Cons of topical treatments:
  • Limited penetration through the nail plate
  • Longer treatment duration required
  • Lower cure rates compared to oral medications

Oral Antifungal Medications: The Gold Standard for Nail Fungus Treatment

Systemic therapy with oral antifungal medications is considered the most effective treatment for onychomycosis. The two main oral antifungals used for nail fungus are terbinafine and itraconazole.

How do oral antifungals work?

Oral antifungals work by circulating throughout the body and penetrating the nail bed and plate from within. This allows them to reach the site of infection more effectively than topical treatments. Terbinafine is fungicidal, meaning it kills the fungal cells, while itraconazole is primarily fungistatic, inhibiting fungal growth.

Terbinafine vs Itraconazole: Which is more effective?

Studies have shown that terbinafine is generally more effective than itraconazole for treating nail fungus. A study by Evans et al. found that after 12 weeks of treatment and 72 weeks of follow-up, terbinafine achieved a 76% mycological cure rate, compared to 38% for itraconazole. This significant difference in efficacy makes terbinafine the preferred choice for most cases of onychomycosis.

Treatment Duration and Dosing Regimens

The duration of treatment for nail fungus can vary depending on the medication used and the severity of the infection. Oral medications typically require shorter treatment periods compared to topical treatments.

How long does nail fungus treatment take?

For oral medications:

• Terbinafine: Typically prescribed for 12 weeks of continuous therapy for toenail infections.
• Itraconazole: Often given in pulse therapy, with one week of treatment per month for three months.

Topical treatments may require several months to a year of consistent application to see significant improvement.

The Role of Candida in Nail Fungus Infections

There has been some debate about the importance of Candida albicans in nail fungus infections and its implications for treatment choice.

Is Candida a primary cause of nail fungus?

Current evidence suggests that Candida is usually a secondary invader in nail fungus infections rather than the primary cause. In most cases, treating the underlying dermatophyte infection with a medication like terbinafine will also resolve any secondary Candida involvement. However, in warmer, more humid climates, Candida may play a more significant role in nail infections.

Challenges in Treating Nail Fungus

Despite advances in antifungal therapy, nail fungus remains a challenging condition to treat. Even with the most effective treatments, a significant percentage of patients may not achieve a complete cure.

Why do some cases of nail fungus resist treatment?

Several factors can contribute to treatment resistance in nail fungus:

• Slow nail growth, especially in toenails
• Presence of comorbidities like diabetes or peripheral vascular disease
• Reinfection from contaminated footwear or environments
• Development of drug-resistant fungal strains
• Poor adherence to treatment regimens

For patients who do not respond to initial treatment, alternative approaches or combination therapies may be necessary.

Prevention and Maintenance Strategies

Preventing recurrence and maintaining healthy nails is crucial in the long-term management of nail fungus.

How can nail fungus recurrence be prevented?

To prevent nail fungus recurrence:

1. Keep feet clean and dry
2. Wear breathable footwear and change socks regularly
3. Use antifungal powders or sprays in shoes
4. Avoid walking barefoot in public areas like locker rooms or swimming pools
5. Trim nails regularly and keep them short
6. Consider using a topical antifungal as prophylaxis

Implementing these strategies can significantly reduce the risk of reinfection and help maintain healthy nails after successful treatment.

Emerging Treatments and Future Directions

Research into new treatments for nail fungus is ongoing, with several promising approaches under investigation.

What new treatments are being developed for nail fungus?

Some emerging treatments for nail fungus include:

• Laser therapy: Uses targeted light to destroy fungal cells
• Photodynamic therapy: Combines light activation with photosensitizing agents
• Nanotechnology-based delivery systems: Improve penetration of antifungal agents
• Novel antifungal compounds: Target specific fungal pathways
• Combination therapies: Utilize multiple treatment modalities for enhanced efficacy

These innovative approaches may provide additional options for patients who have not responded to conventional treatments.

In conclusion, while topical treatments like Lamisil cream have their place in managing superficial fungal infections, oral antifungal medications remain the most effective option for treating nail fungus. Terbinafine has shown superior efficacy compared to itraconazole, making it the preferred choice for most cases of onychomycosis. However, treatment success depends on various factors, including patient compliance, the severity of the infection, and individual response to therapy. A comprehensive approach that combines appropriate medication, preventive measures, and patient education offers the best chance for successful management of nail fungus.

Skin and nail fungi—almost beaten

Dermatophyte infections occur often either between the outer toes or in the toenails. It is now possible to eradicate most of these, and more widespread fungal infections, with the new generation of antifungal agents. Competing claims are made for systemic terbinafine and itraconazole, and up to now it has been hard to sort out the science from the marketing. The recent paper by Evans et al¹ and the systematic review in this issue by Hart et al (p 79)² attempt to point ways through the evidence. Other problems remain in treating children and non-responders.

The conclusions reached in the systematic review by Hart et al are undermined by the limited questions asked. It is legitimate to review the evidence for topical treatments for superficial fungal infections of the skin, but common sense must be applied to the results. Use of topical drugs in the community is not necessarily the same as in a trial situation. Poor compliance is common because symptoms are rapidly relieved, whether or not there has been mycological cure. Very few applications of topical (fungicidal) terbinafine are needed to produce a cure, whereas fungistatic drugs must be applied until the infected stratum corneum is shed. One week of topical terbinafine therefore gives better cure rates than four weeks of clotrimazole.³ The implications for community cure rates, recurrence, and spreading of infection to others are obvious and the authors’ failure to consider them indicate a naivety in their cost effectiveness conclusions.

Moreover, in considering nail infections it is inappropriate to review the evidence for topical treatment in isolation from that for systemic treatment. In their discussion Hart et al correctly state that evidence on the efficacy of topical treatments for nail infections is sparse, but the summary conclusion ambiguously implies that their conclusions apply to nail as well as the skin.² Systemic therapy, with terbinafine, is the treatment of choice for onychomycosis.¹

Today’s drugs for treating superficial fungal infections are dramatically more effective than those available 20 years ago. Griseofulvin, introduced in the 1960s, is fungistatic whereas terbinafine is fungicidal even at low concentrations. Fungistatic drugs anaesthetise dermatophytes; fungicidal ones murder them. Griseofulvin therefore has to be taken until all infected tissue is lost through natural turnover—about four weeks for stratum corneum and up to 18 months for infected toenail. In contrast a fungicidal drug, such as the allylamine terbinafine, needs only to be taken for a short time until all the fungi are dead: normal appearance will slowly follow. Itraconazole is a triazole that is primarily fungistatic¹ but which reaches fungicidal levels at 100 times greater concentration than for terbinafine.

Topically applied terbinafine and topical azoles rapidly penetrate the stratum corneum. Pharmacokinetic studies suggest that only a few applications of topical terbinafine will cure a dermatophyte infection.⁴ This is particularly useful as a high response rate may still follow low compliance.

Knowledge of the pharmacokinetics of terbinafine and itraconazole have resulted in original, but contrasting, advice over the timing of oral therapy. Both drugs penetrate nail plate rapidly and persist in nail for some time. This persistence has led Janssen to advocate a pulse therapy concept for itraconazole, in which the drug is given for only one week every month, relying on the stored reservoir of drug. Novartis has taken the more traditional approach of uninterrupted therapy for terbinafine: both suggested regimens, of equivalent cost, are for only 12 weeks for toenail disease—long enough for the drug to penetrate and the organisms to be killed. At last there is clear evidence about which regimen is most effective: Evans et al showed that terbinafine gives a 76% mycological cure rate and itraconazole a 38% cure rate in toenail onychomycosis assessed at 72 weeks after each drug had been given for 12 weeks.¹

Perhaps the most contentious issue in the itraconazole-terbinafine battle has been over Candida albicans. Does candida play an important primary pathogenic role in onychomycosis, or is it usually secondary to the primary dermatophyte infection, disappearing when the dermatophyte infection is dealt with? If candida is of prime importance, itraconazole with its broad spectrum of action is indicated. However, it appears that it is only of secondary importance,⁵ so terbinafine is appropriate, despite its specific action. In warmer humid climates, however, candida may thrive more easily and play a more important part.

Even in the most optimistic studies, at least 15% of patients with onychomycosis are not cured. How can they be helped? If the organism is identified and known to be sensitive to the drug, presumably the drug is not reaching the organism. Roberts and Evans have suggested the concept of a “dermatophytoma,” analogous to an aspergilloma, where the space between the nail plate and the nail bed is invaded and expanded by a mass of dermatophytes, impenetrable to systemic or topical drugs. ⁶ Other reasons for failure may include a distorted nail plate preventing penetration, and, of course, non-compliance. There is some logic in treating such nails with a combination of oral therapy, removal of infected tissue, and topical therapy—but there is little published evidence on the effectiveness of this approach.

Children, once again, are the losers in these therapeutic advances. The complexities and expense of having drugs licensed for use in children has resulted in oral terbinafine being licensed for children in very few countries, despite a safety profile similar to that in adults⁷; itraconazole is similarly restricted. Griseofulvin is therefore still used in children, for skin and nail infection, despite its side effects and inferior effectiveness. The pharmaceutical industry and licensing authorities must jointly bear the blame for this continuing disadvantage to children (see p 70).

Fungal infection of the hands, body, or scalp is unsightly and uncomfortable. Although many—6.9% estimated prevalence in Ontario⁸—are troubled by the appearance of infected toenails and by the impact on quality of life,⁹ most people with localised fungal infections probably are little concerned. Now that effective therapy is available, there are pressures to educate the public about the problem, which is clearly in the interests of the pharmaceutical companies as well as the public. The risks, such as idiosyncratic liver reactions associated with oral therapy,¹⁰ need to be taken into account.

Despite the extensive work represented by this issue’s systematic review, I believe that the most effective treatment for a topical dermatophyte infection remains topical terbinafine, and for onychomycosis is oral terbinafine. Why should we recommend inferior therapy to our patients?

Can Lamisil cream be used for nail fungus? – Kitchen

If you have a fungal nail infection (fungus inside and under the nail) with discolouration of the nails and changes in nail texture (thick or flaky), you should consult your doctor because Lamisil AT 1% Cream is not appropriate for this type of infection.

Does lamisil cream work for toenail fungus?

Over-the-Counter Treatments If you have mild onychomycosis restricted to the ends of the nail, OTC products like Lamisil (terbinafine) cream may provide relief in conjunction with regular debridement and consistent use over four to six months. The cost of generic Lamisil cream is around $12 for a 0.46-ounce tube.

Can I use Lamisil cream on my fingernails?

Do not apply this medication on the scalp or nails unless otherwise directed by your doctor. The dosage and length of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated. Do not apply more often or use longer than directed. This may increase the risk of side effects.

Will antifungal cream kill toenail fungus?

Topical treatments like antifungal creams and medicated nail lacquers are among the most effective treatment options for toenail fungus. Laser treatment or the surgical removal of the toenail may be necessary in more severe cases of toenail fungus.

What is the best cream for fungal nail infection?

Terbinafine Hydrochloride AntiFungal Cream works to address a variety of infections, including toenail fungus. The prescription-strength cream is recommended by Dr. Lipner to treat athlete’s foot before it spreads to the toenails. It works by killing the fungus and preventing its growth.

How do you use Lamisil cream for toenail fungus?

Apply just enough cream to form a thin layer on the affected skin and surrounding areas. Rub in gently. When used between the toes, buttocks or on the groin, the treated area may be covered with a light, fresh gauze strip, especially at night.

How long does it take for Lamisil cream to cure toenail fungus?

In studies, their cure rate averaged around 35%. Oral medications. Itraconazole (Sporanox) and terbinafine (Lamisil) eliminated the fungus in 10 months for 55% to 70% of people in the studies required for FDA approval, but for 15% to 20% of users, the fungus returned within a few months.

What kills toenail fungus instantly?

Hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide can kill fungus that grows on toenails. You can directly wipe hydrogen peroxide on your infected toes or toenails with a clean cloth or cotton swab. Hydrogen peroxide can also be used in a foot soak.

Can you file nail fungus away?

With that in mind, I generally encourage healthy adult patients with mild toenail fungus to not treat it or to treat it just using topical measures. For example, you can buff the nail down with a file to keep it thin, so the fungus has less of a home to live in. You should also keep the nail trimmed.

Does anything really cure toenail fungus?

Taking antifungal pills for two months can cure an infection under the fingernails. Usually three months of treatment cures a toenail fungal infection. Antifungal pills, however, can cause side effects. Your dermatologist will watch you closely.

Should I cut off my fungus toenail?

If you do have a toenail fungus, your doctor will likely recommend one or more of the following treatment options: Trimming the Toenail Trimming the toenail is usually combined with medication, but having a podiatrist periodically trim the nail down is helpful and allows the medication to work better, says Sundling.

How do I know if my toenail fungus is dying?

Top 5 signs your toenail fungus has gone nuclear

1. Nail color changes. If your nail turns white and chalky or yellow, it’s not a good sign.
2. Nail position changes. If your nail starts to curl downward or upward, it’s time to be concerned.
3. Nail texture changes.
4. Nail smell changes.
5. Nail sensation changes.

What does lamisil treat?

Lamisil Tablets is a prescription antifungal medicine used to treat fungal infections of the fingernails and toenails (onychomycosis). Your doctor should do tests to check you for fungal infection of your nails before you start Lamisil Tablets.

What happens if you leave toenail fungus untreated?

If you let a nail fungus infection go for too long, several problems emerge. The infected nail can become misshapen and increasingly separated from your nail bed. Itching and pain are unpleasant side effects; if they’re too severe, you can have trouble wearing shoes or walking.

How do you get rid of toenail fungus in 10 minutes?

Are there any other precautions or warnings for this medication?

Before you begin using a medication, be sure to inform your doctor of any medical conditions or allergies you may have, any medications you are taking, whether you are pregnant or breast-feeding, and any other significant facts about your health. These factors may affect how you should use this medication.

Blood counts: This medication may decrease the number of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell that helps fight infection), red blood cells (which carry oxygen), and platelets (which help your blood to clot). Your doctor will do blood tests to monitor this. If you notice any signs of infection (e.g., fever, chills, or sore throat) or unusual bleeding or bruising, contact your doctor immediately.

Depression: Rarely, this medication has been reported to cause mood swings and symptoms of depression. If you have depression or a history of depression or anxiety, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. If you experience symptoms of depression such as poor concentration, changes in weight, changes in sleep, decreased interest in activities, or notice them in a family member who is taking this medication contact your doctor as soon as possible.

External use only: Terbinafine cream and spray are for external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes. Do not use the spray on the face. In case of accidental contact with the eyes, rinse eyes thoroughly with running water and consult a doctor if any symptoms persist. In case of inhalation, contact a doctor if any symptoms develop and persist. Topical forms of terbinafine are not effective for treating fungal infections of the nails.

Kidney function: The safety and effectiveness of using terbinafine have not been determined for people with decreased kidney function. The kidneys are partially responsible for removing terbinafine from the body. Decreased kidney function may cause terbinafine to build up in the body causing side effects. If you have decreased kidney function, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Liver function: Terbinafine tablets are not recommended for people with chronic (long-term) or active liver disease. Decreased liver function can cause terbinafine to build up in the body, causing side effects including further liver damage. Your doctor may order liver function tests before you start and while you are taking terbinafine tablets. During treatment with terbinafine, report to your doctor any signs or symptoms of liver problems including unusual fatigue, loss of appetite, yellowing of skin or eyes, abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, dark urine, pale stools, or itching.

Lupus erythematosus: Occasionally, people taking terbinafine report a flare-up of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). If you have SLE, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Sensory disturbances: People taking terbinafine occasionally experience changes in how they sense things. Vision changes, difficulty hearing, a decreased sense of touch, change in the sense of taste or loss of smell have all been reported. If you notice changes while you are taking this medication, contact your doctor.

Pregnancy: This medication should not be used during pregnancy unless the benefits outweigh the risks. If you become pregnant while taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately.

Breast-feeding: This medication passes into breast milk. If you are a breast-feeding mother and are taking terbinafine, it may affect your baby. Women taking terbinafine tablets should not breast-feed. If you are using the cream or spray, talk to your doctor about whether you should continue breast-feeding.

Lamisil (terbinafine) dosing, indications, interactions, adverse effects, and more

Fungus

It is in the spring that outbreaks of various fungal diseases occur. And it is not surprising, because at this time, almost all people have a decrease in the protective properties of the body. And fungi, according to dermatologists, are present on the skin and mucous membranes of every person.
In addition to weakening the immune system, doctors also include standing work, infected shoes, vascular diseases, varicose veins, cuts and wounds as risk factors.
Modern medicine can offer a huge and effective arsenal of antifungal agents for external use.When prescribing an antifungal drug, the doctor will take into account not only its effectiveness and safety, but also the spread of the focus of the disease. For the treatment of fungal diseases, a number of drugs are used that differ in their mechanism and spectrum of action, origin (synthetic or natural), antifungal effect (fungistatic or fungicidal), methods of administration (externally, internally), indications for use (systemic or local infections). Medicines for nail fungus come in the form of oral preparations – capsules and tablets, and local forms – varnishes, sprays.
Exoderil is available in the form of a cream and solution for external use. It should be noted that “Exoderil” is characterized by a wide spectrum of antifungal action, exhibits pronounced anti-inflammatory properties. A variety of dosage forms allows for high-quality external antifungal therapy. Exoderil has a number of advantages: a wide range of antifungal activity; a combination of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties; optimal ratio of efficiency and safety; effective penetration of the active substance into all affected skin areas; ease of use (only 1 time per day).
“Lamisil” offers a wide range of forms for quick and effective treatment of fungus: “Lamisil” cream – softens dry and rough skin with fungus of feet and hands; “Lamisil Dermgel” – cools, relieves itching, dries the skin and is quickly absorbed; “Lamisil Uno” is a unique remedy for treating foot fungus in just one application; “Lamisil Spray” is the optimal form for active people, it is well absorbed, it is convenient for treating fungus of hairy areas and large skin folds.
Lotseril is an antifungal varnish.It is used for the prevention and treatment of fungal diseases of the nail plate. This antifungal drug is produced in France, a set of tampons, spatulas and nail files is attached to the varnish. The active substance of “Lotseril” penetrates the cells of the pathogen and destroys them. The varnish affects not only the nail itself, but also the soft tissues located directly under it.
Batrafen nail varnish – a number of properties bring this dosage form closer to the optimal one for local treatment of mycoses: high concentration of the active substance and its optimal release; good penetration through the nail tissue and the ability to accumulate in it; stable fixation of the remedy on the nail plate; high antifungal effectiveness; simplicity and ease of use.
The Mikospor set is convenient for treating nails – it contains an adhesive plaster, a scraper and an ointment containing bifonazole, urea, lanolin and petroleum jelly.
“FUNDIZOL” cream is an effective remedy for the treatment of fungal infections of nails, fungal and bacterial skin lesions, “ingrown nails”. Fundizol softens and removes the damaged part of the nail plate and the superficial affected layer of the epidermis damaged by the fungus. Softens the skin of the feet, heals skin cracks. Eliminates unpleasant foot odor.Painlessly removes the part of the nail affected by the fungus.
Antifungal socks and insoles can be used to prevent fungal infections. Antifungal socks will reliably protect nails, toes and feet from fungal and pustular diseases, can reduce unpleasant odor of sweat from feet, and provide a high level of comfort, especially when wearing thick, non-breathable shoes for a long time. Antifungal insoles: their main purpose is to protect the feet from the growth of bacteria inside the shoe, to eliminate high humidity.

In most cases, a fungal infection affects an organism with a weakened immune system, and the skin and nails are most vulnerable to the external effects of pathogenic microorganisms. If the color of the nail begins to change, the structure of the nail plate is disrupted, and the skin on the finger becomes inflamed, then be sure to consult a dermatologist to identify the cause of the pathological process. Onychomycosis is a dangerous disease and the activity of nail fungus at the last stage of the infectious process can lead to the penetration of dermatophytes to the internal organs through the blood.

Antimycotic agent Lamisil blocks the activity and reproduction of fungal infection. The doctor prescribes a treatment course and regular use of Lamisil gradually leads to the destruction of dermatophytes and their spores. For the treatment of onychomycosis, tablets, ointment (cream), spray, varnish with the name ‘Lamisil’ are used, but the main active ingredient of the drug is terbinafine. Terbinafine belongs to a broad spectrum of substances and successfully suppresses the activity of not only nail fungi, but also other pathogenic microorganisms that cause various mycoses and candidiasis.

The substance blocks the exchange of proteins in the cells of the fungus and causes a violation of the synthesis of sterols, after which these microorganisms quickly die. Before using Lamisil, carefully read the instructions for use of the product and follow the doctor’s instructions every day, observing the treatment regimen for onychomycosis. You can supplement the main course of treatment of a fungal disease with effective folk remedies. For example, before using the medication, soak your feet with baking soda and tea tree essential oil, and then wipe your toes with hydrogen peroxide solution.
