Podiatrists may have many needs for compounded medications

1. Podiatrists may have many needs for compounded medications Commercial products to treat onychomycosis include griseoflulvin, itraconazole, Terbinafine and circlopirox 8% nail lacquer (Penlac). Griseofulvin has reported poor cure rates and requires 10 – 18 months of use. Oral therapy with itraconazole and Terbinafine also present problems with drug interactions and liver toxicity. A patient with compromised liver function or a GERD patient on a PPI will not be a candidate for oral itraconazole. For patients who cannot use antifungals, Penlac is the only commercial topical treatment available. However, Penlac reportedly has only a 14% cure rate after several months of use. Having a compounded prescription medication may overcome these problems and avoid the need for extensive liver monitoring. We can dissolve an antifungal in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) that has superior nail penetration and it is able to deliver an antifungal to the site of infection. Examples of antifungals that can be compounded in DMSO are azole antifungals and terbinafine.Newport coast pharmacy Possible formulas:- Itraconazole 1%/Ibuprofen 2% in DMSO nail polish Itraconazole 1%/Undecylenic Acid 17% in Tea Tree Oil-DMSO nail polish Itraconazole 1%/Undecylenic Acid 17%/Salicylic Acid 10% in Tea Tree Oil-DMSO nail polish Ketoconazole/Tea Tree Oil/DMSO Antifungal Solution Terbinafine 1.67% Topical Solution.
