A premium, clinically validated topical antifungal treatment formulated as a medicated nail lacquer to treat stubborn fungal infections (onychomycosis) affecting both fingernails and toenails.
Loceryl contains Amorolfine Hydrochloride (5% w/v), a highly potent, broad-spectrum morpholine derivative. Unlike traditional anti-infectives, it functions by penetrating deep into the dense keratin layers of the nail bed to directly neutralize hidden fungal structures.
It eradicates fungal colonies through a distinct cellular mechanism:
Sterol Biosynthesis Disruption: It targets and dual-blocks two separate enzymes within the fungal cell membrane pathway: $\Delta^{14}$-reductase and $\Delta^{7}\rightarrow\Delta^{8}$-isomerase.
Ergosterol Depletion: This structural blockade depletes the fungus of ergosterol, an absolute biological requirement for fungal cell membrane survival, while causing a toxic accumulation of alternative sterols (ignosterol).
Membrane Rupture: Without a stable, functioning cell membrane, the invading fungal cells lose their structural integrity, leak internal nutrients, and break down completely.
Onychomycosis Treatment: Eradicating mild-to-moderate fungal nail infections caused by dermatophytes (like Trichophyton species), yeasts (like Candida strains), molds, and fungi when the infection does not involve the nail matrix (the growing root of the nail).
Adults presenting with superficial fungal nail discoloration (white, yellow, or brown patches), nail thickening, or structural crumbling at the edges of the nail plate.
Nail Matrix Involvement: If the fungal infection has reached the deep lunula (the white crescent at the base of your nail) or the growing matrix, topical lacquers alone are typically insufficient. These scenarios require a comprehensive medical assessment for potential oral antifungal therapies.
Hypersensitivity: Do not use if you have a known history of allergic reactions or extreme hypersensitivity to amorolfine or any of the ingredients in the lacquer solution.
Pregnancy and Lactation: Due to a lack of extensive clinical data regarding systemic tracking in pregnant or nursing mothers, it is highly recommended to avoid use unless explicitly cleared by your physician.
Pediatric Populations: Generally not recommended for children and infants due to limited clinical usage records in lower age brackets.
The Application Continuity Law: Loceryl 5% lacquer is a long-term treatment. It must be applied consistently once or twice a week without interruption until the entirely infected nail tissue has grown out and been replaced by a completely clean, healthy nail.
The Single-File Rule: Never use a nail file that was previously used on an infected nail to shape your healthy, uninfected nails. Doing so will rapidly spread the fungal micro-organisms across your hands or feet.
The Cosmetic Ban: Avoid wearing cosmetic nail polishes, artificial gel extensions, or acrylic overlays on the treated nail during the entire course of therapy, as these layers trap moisture and prevent the active medication from penetrating the nail.
1.File down the infected areas of the nail surface:Keratin Debridement.
Before your very first weekly application, use one of the disposable nail files provided in the kit to file down the affected, thickened surfaces of the nail as much as possible.
2.Cleanse the nail plate with an alcohol swab:Sanitization.
Open one of the enclosed medicinal alcohol wipes. Cleanse the filed nail thoroughly to remove all remaining keratin dust, dirt, and oil grease, ensuring a perfectly sterile surface for maximum lacquer adhesion.
3.Coat the entire nail surface evenly using the spatula:Lacquer Application.
Dip the reusable plastic applicator spatula into the Loceryl bottle. Draw it out without wiping the lacquer against the neck of the bottle. Paint a thin, even layer of the 5% solution across the entire surface of the diseased nail.
4.Allow the medicated layer to dry completely open:Evaporation and Drying.
Let the treated nail air-dry naturally for approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Clean your reusable applicator spatula with the alcohol wipe before putting it away, and twist the bottle cap tightly shut to prevent the solution from evaporating.
Because fingernails and toenails grow at a slow biological pace, you will not see an immediate shift in the appearance of your nail after your first few applications. Loceryl forms a waterproof, active film that remains bound to the nail keratin for up to 7 days, fighting the fungus continuously between applications.
Fingernails generally require 6 months of continuous weekly tracking to clear completely, while slower-growing toenails can take anywhere from 9 to 12 months to fully regenerate as pristine, healthy nail tissue.
Because it acts topically rather than passing through your digestive tract, systemic side effects are exceptionally rare. However, it can occasionally prompt localized adjustments, including:
A brief, mild burning sensation or transient skin redness directly around the edges of the nail bed immediately after application.
Minor local contact dermatitis, skin dryness, or a slight brittleness or thinning of the treated nail plate.
What should I do if I accidentally forget or miss a scheduled weekly application?
Apply the Loceryl 5% lacquer as soon as you remember on that week, and then continue with your normal fixed weekly schedule. Do not double the application thickness or apply it multiple days in a row to make up for a missed turn.
Can I wear shoes and socks immediately after applying the lacquer to my toenails?
You must wait a full 3 to 5 minutes until the liquid matrix has dried completely to a clear, hard finish. Once the lacquer is completely dry, you can safely put on socks, hosiery, or shoes, and you can wash your feet or swim normally without worrying about washing away the medication.
Why is it necessary to file down the nail before each new application?
Filing the nail removes the dead, hyper-keratinized layers that the fungus builds as a shield. Reducing this thickness allows the active molecules to penetrate smoothly through the nail plate down into the deep tissue pockets where the active fungal spores live.
