Abstract
|
|
|
Onychomycosis is a chronic fungal nail infection which is notoriously difficult to eradicate. In spite of the selection of appropriate oral or topical antifungal medications, treatment failure or recurrences are frequent. Different therapeutic strategies must have been considered to improve the short- and long-term efficacy outcomes. These strategies are followed as: (1) correct diagnosis and classification of onychomycosis, (2) individually tailored treatment regimen, (3) maximizing method of antifungal efficacy, (4) reducing relapse and reinfection.
