Product Information

At 10 months, complete mycological cure rates were 13% (abicin), 8% (amorolfine) and 56% (terbinafine). I can say that it promotes nail healing as I observed quite significant effect on my toe nail texture. A quick look at the National Library of Medicine Database (PubMed) pulls up a few studies which have investigated Emtrix® (also marketed as Nalox® and Naloc®). It normally requires at least 3-6 months’ treatment to achieve a significant improvement, but visible results can often be seen after only 2-4 weeks. Formulated as a topical nail product, Emtrix® Night Patch has a penetrating formula that helps improve the appearance of nails damaged by nail fungus.

Emtrix Nail Renewal with natural Tea Tree Oil is an effective nail nourishment for weak and damaged nails.

Visiting places where people gather, such as swimming pools, public showers and changing rooms, can involve a risk of infection. Abicin® (Espere) is a relatively new product introduced into the UK market this year and will probably be making its way into pharmacies shortly. Emtrix increases hydration and gently smoothens the outer layers of the nail plate by creating an antagonistic microenvironment for microorganisms. Local application of a chemical or a medicine is appealing to many as a safe and convenient way to treat nail infections avoiding the risks of side effects and complications of their systemic counterparts. Approximately 10% of the general population and 20% of the population over 60 years are affected by fungal nail infections.

A patented composition consisting of propylene glycol, urea and lactic acid Emtrix's effectivness has been tested in several clinical studies with good results. The study compared Excilor®, Naloc/Nalox® (marketed as Emtrix® in the UK), Nailner®, Mycosan, Scholl Nail Treatment, Kruidvat fungal nail pen® and Boots fungal nail treatment pen®. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. So patients should be advised that although a treatment may work, the nails may not look significantly better (in some cases).The authors suggest that the three products although acidifying, could not reach a pH low enough in the nail model to inhibit fungal growth. For patients seeking topical treatments from the pharmacist, they can be confronted with an array of various products off-the-shelf making various claims to be able to treat unsightly toenails and banish stubborn fungal nail infections.

Emtrix Fungal Nail Treatment offers a convenient and effective solution for those struggling with the common and frustrating condition of nail fungus and nail psoriasis. Changes the Nail’s Microenvironment Emtrix changes the nail’s microenvironment, so the fungus can no longer survive. Emtrix increases hydration and, by binding moisture into the nail, creates a stronger and healthier nail surface. No noticeable changes to the nails after a week or so but I know the affected nails have to "grow out" before improvement can be seen. The use of urea based ointments (similar to Canespro®) has been shown to improve outcomes in treatment but only when used in combination an anti-fungal drug.When I experienced a fungal infection, I immediately thought of Emtrix and indeed, after a few days of using it, I saw an improvement in my toe's visual appearance. The composition may be subject to variations, so we advise you to always check the list on the purchased product.

Patients often come into the clinic and they say they have used such a product – (successfully or unsuccessfully) but what do we really know about their efficacy?
