3. How to use Amorolfin ABECE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor has told you. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recommended dosage:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adults (over 18 years):<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apply Amorolfin Abece to the infected nails once a week.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. <\/strong>File the nail<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"File<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

File down the infected areas of the nail, including the nail surface, as much as possible with the nail file in the package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WARNING! Nail files used for infected nails should not be used on healthy nails, as you may then spread the infection one by one. To prevent the spread of infection, make sure that no one else uses the files from the medicine pack.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. <\/strong>Clean the nail<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Clean<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Use one of the included alcohol wipes and clean the nail surface. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for each nail with a sponge.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. <\/strong>Take some varnish out of the bottle<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Take<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dip one of the reusable applicators into the nail polish bottle. Do not apply the paint to the edge of the bottle before applying it.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. <\/strong>Apply the varnish<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Apply<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Apply the varnish evenly over the entire nail surface. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each nail with a sponge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. <\/strong>Let the varnish dry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Let<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let the treated nail or nails dry for about 3 minutes.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. <\/strong>Clean the applicator<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Clean<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The supplied applicators are reusable. However, it is important that you clean them after each treatment. Use the same alcohol swab as when you cleaned the nail (s). Avoid touching the newly treated nails suddenly. Close the nail polish bottle carefully. Dispose of suddenly in a safe way, as it is flammable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before using Amorolfin Abece next time, first, remove the old nail polish with an alcohol swab and then, if necessary, file the nails again. Then apply the new varnish as described above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– When the varnish has dried, it is not affected by soap and water, so you can wash your hands and feet just as usual. If you need to use any solvents such as thinner or white spirit, wear rubber gloves or other protective gloves to protect the nail polish on your fingernails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Do not use ordinary nail polish or loose nails during the treatment.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you stop using Amorolfin ABECE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
