Contents:

• One 10g urea ointment tube (40% urea)
• 22 specially designed waterproof plasters
• One plastic scraper

Features:

• The urea ointment selectively softens the parts of the nail infected by the fungus, leaving healthy parts of the nail intact.
• The plasters are used to cover the urea ointment applied to the nail. The scraper is used to remove the softened infected parts of the nail.
• Treatment with Canespro urea ointment should be carried out carefully every day and should be continued until no more infected parts of the nail can be removed.
• This usually takes 2-3 weeks, depending on the extent of the fungal nail infection and the thickness of the nail.
• After the infected parts of the nail are removed, follow on treatment with an antifungal cream is recommended which is available from your pharmacist.

Directions:

• Step 1:
  • Before applying the ointment, the affected hand or foot should be soaked in warm water for approximately 10 minutes. Dry thoroughly.
  • Apply the ointment to the surface of the infected nail once daily.
  • Apply enough to cover the infected nail areas with a thin layer.
• Step 2:
  • To cover the infected nail with a plaster, gently place half the plaster over the treated nail then fold over the sides of the plaster around the toe or finger and press.
  • For smaller fingernails or toenails, cut the plaster in half.
  • Take care not to touch the sticky surface of the plaster with your fingers or with the ointment as this will help it stick better.
  • Fold over the other half of the plaster over the back of your toe or finger.
  • Again, fold over the sides of the plaster around the toe or finger and press. The plaster will fit like a protective cap over the affected nail.
• Step 3:
  • Remove the plaster after 24 hours and soak the nail in warm water for approximately 10 minutes.
  • After soaking, remove the softened infected parts of the nail using the plastic nail scraper.
  • Hold the plastic nail scraper firmly by gripping the broad handle (smooth and blunt end) only. Use the sharpened and serrated edge for scraping.
  • Clean the scraper with water thoroughly after each use. Keep the plastic nail scraper until treatment is complete.
  • Dry the treated nail(s) thoroughly. Canespro Urea Ointment and a fresh plaster should be applied daily for 2-3 weeks, as described in steps 1, 2 and 3.
• Follow-up treatment after nail removal:
  • After the infected parts of the nail are removed complete the treatment with an antifungal cream available from your pharmacist.
