How long does it take to work?
Treatment of mild fungal nail infections may take time, because the nail has to grow out before the infection is completely cured.
For this reason, it is very important that you continue to use Curanail once weekly until the infection
has cleared and a healthy nail has grown back. This takes about 6 months for
fingernails and around 9–12 months for toenails.

Sticking to treatment
Some tips to help inspire you to continue with treatment include:
- Making use of the nail templates which will be provided in the pack along with Curanail. These are drawings of nails for you to fill in to help you chart your progress and draw attention to even the small changes in nail condition.
- Using a diary card which you can print off from this website
- Picking a day to always apply treatment and trying to build it into a routine – for example, following a regular sporting activity or after bathing
- Putting a reminder in your diary to see a healthcare professional (e.g. pharmacist, doctor or podiatrist) every 3 months for a treatment review. This will be vital to monitor your progress and check that Curanail is working for you
