Frequently Asked Questions

What is ciclopirox and how does it treat nail fungus?

Ciclopirox is a hydroxypyridone antifungal — a different class from azoles and allylamines — that works by chelating (binding) the polyvalent cations (Fe3+, Al3+) essential for fungal enzyme function, disrupting multiple fungal metabolic pathways simultaneously. This multi-mechanism action makes ciclopirox effective against the dermatophyte fungi most commonly responsible for nail infections (particularly Trichophyton rubrum and T. mentagrophytes). As a lacquer, ciclopirox penetrates through the nail plate directly to the nail bed where the infection resides.

How do I use Rejuvenail Nail Lacquer?

Apply once daily to the affected nail(s) and surrounding skin. Before the first application, file down the nail surface with the nail file provided. Apply a thin, even coat over the entire nail including the underside edge. Allow to dry. Once weekly, remove accumulated lacquer with alcohol and re-file the nail before reapplying. Treatment typically continues for 6 months (fingernails) or up to 12 months (toenails) for full clearance.

How long does treatment take to work?

Fungal nail treatment requires patience — nails grow slowly, and healthy nail must grow out to replace the infected nail. Most people see the nail beginning to clear from the base (new growth) within 3–6 months. Full treatment course is 6 months for fingernails and up to 12 months for toenails. Do not discontinue treatment early when you see improvement — the infection can recur if the full course is not completed.

What causes fungal nail infections and how can I prevent recurrence?

Nail fungus (onychomycosis) is most commonly caused by Trichophyton dermatophytes acquired from contaminated surfaces — gym floors, swimming pools, shared showers, and footwear. Risk factors include: athlete's foot (tinea pedis), poor circulation, diabetes, nail trauma, and humid environments. Prevention: keep feet dry, wear thongs in shared wet areas, use antifungal powder in shoes, treat concurrent athlete's foot, and avoid sharing nail implements.

Can Rejuvenail be used over nail polish?

No. Do not apply conventional nail polish or other nail cosmetics over or alongside Rejuvenail during treatment. These can prevent the lacquer from adhering properly and block the penetration of ciclopirox through the nail plate. If wearing nail cosmetics on other nails, keep them away from the treated nails.
