Batrafen lacquer is an effective method in the treatment of onychomycosis

Onychomycosis is a fungal lesion of the nail plates. Unfortunately, this disease is extremely widespread. Frequency of occurrence in different countries varies from 3 to 20%. It is more common in the elderly.

With this pathology, the main method of treatment is etiotropic effects. Almost always, the causative agents of onychomycosis are dermatophytes, the main ones of which are Trichophhyton mentagrophytes and Trichophyton rubrum. Other pathogens (less than 10%) include pathogens such as Candida yeasts (most often Candida albicans), much less often molds (eg, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis).

"Batrafen varnish" contains the active substance cyclopyrox, which acts on all of the above pathogens. It has been clinically proven that the use of antifungal medicines locally is safer.

It should be noted that all gels, ointments, solutions, creams, powders and aerosols are very difficult to fix, and they are easily washed or washed off from the nail plate, therefore, Batrafen varnish has a significant advantage. The use of additional bandages or patches practically does not increase the penetration of the active agent, since the keratin plate of the nail is a relatively impenetrable barrier for medicinal preparations.

"Batrafen lacquer" was specially developed relatively recently. In its composition contains 8% of the cyclopyrox.

Optimum dosage form is made by its following properties:

• High content of active substance;
• Strong fixation of the drug on the nail;
• Good permeability deep into the nail plate and the ability to accumulate in it;
• Convenience and ease of use;
• And most importantly - very high efficiency.

Lacquer "Batrafen" reviews get the best: simplicity in application and results of use amaze. Another positive point in its use is that it can be applied as a basis for cosmetic varnish, which does not cause a decrease in its effectiveness.

"Batrafen lacquer" after application dries up in half a minute. The concentration of the cyclopyrox after evaporation of the solvent is created sufficient to pass the varnish through the keratin layer of the nail. Getting into the nail bed, the active substance begins to act after 2 days after the first application.
The appearance of this drug significantly increased the role of local treatment: you can apply yourself with minor damage to the nails, as well as in the presence of contraindications to systemic treatment.

With superficial lesions, without involving the matrix, Batrafen Lacquer is most effectively used.

The instruction recommends its use with a small amount of injured nails, with severe forms of mycoses as an additional means to systemic treatment. In such complex cases, this combination allows to create optimal drug concentrations on the entire thickness of the nail, which increases the safety and effectiveness of therapy.

Based on many years of experience and the results of controlled clinical trials, the use of this varnish is shown even in patients with severe concomitant pathology (eg, diabetes mellitus). Even in patients older than 70 years, the effectiveness of this drug was more than 90% (with lesion of the nail plate less than 30%). Mycological cure occurred in 80% of patients.

"Batrafen" varnish is the first antifungal agent for topical use, which is authorized by the FDA in the treatment of onychomycosis in the United States.

With this medication you can forget about the fungus forever and your nails will look great!
