Amtris Cream is an antifungal medicine used for the treatment of fungal infections in fingernails and toenails. It works by killing the fungi and helps clear the infection and reduce associated inflammation.
Amtris Cream should be applied exactly as prescribed, usually to clean and dry nails. Apply it directly to the affected area and ensure to complete the course of treatment. Keep the affected area clean, dry, and well-ventilated for best results.
Most people tolerate Amtris Cream well. In rare cases, some may experience nail breaking, brittleness, discolouration, burning sensation, or itching (pruritus). If you experience any side effects that persist or get worse, stop the treatment and consult your doctor. Avoid excessive application and do not cover the area with tight dressings, as that can cause irritation.
Amtris Cream is for external use only and should not be applied to the eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes. It should not be used by people who are allergic to amorolfine or any of its components. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctors before using the medicine to make sure it is safe for them.
Amtris Cream helps control fungal growth within the nail and surrounding skin. Regular use supports gradual clearing of the infection as the nail grows out, improving nail thickness, strength, and appearance over time. When used as part of proper nail care, it helps slow disease progression and supports healthier nail growth.
