Previously, treatment for nail fungus often included called for ineffective, over-the-counter topical creams or prescription oral antifungal medication, which can increase the potential for liver toxicity issues.
In a clinical trial, 67 percent of patients met the success criteria of three millimeters of clear nail growth. By six months after the initial treatment, these patients average more than five millimeters of new growth. During the study, patients between 18 and 70 years old received treatments once a week for four weeks.
“Lunula is the future of treating onychomycosis,” said Dr. Kerry Zang, founder of th e Arizona Institute of Footcare. “The results seen in the clinical trial are spectacular and we are eager to provide Americans with the opportunity to treat this nail fungus with an effective product.”
Zang and Dr. Robert Sullivan lead the research behind Lunula.
“Nail fungus is a big problem and the toxicity of the available drugs is almost as bad,” said Dr. Sullivan. “Lunula gives doctors a viable treatment option: no blood tests, no pain and no mess.”
