Pragna Shatavari Powder

Description

Pragna Shatavari Powder is used to treat fungal infections of the nails. It kills a wide range of fungi which can make your nails discoloured, thick or brittle. You should use Pragna Shatavari Powder as your doctor suggests and the lacquer will come with instructions. It is normally applied once or twice a week to the affected finger or toe nails. The best way to use it is to clean and file each affected nail and the apply the lacquer evenly over the whole nail. Make sure you do not use the same file on undamaged nails, or these could become infected. Also clean the applicator before moving on to the next nail and after you have finished. You should continue to use this medicine until the infection has cleared and healthy nails have grown back. This can take 6 to 12 months. Pragna Shatavari Powder is a safe medicine with no common side effects but sometimes it can cause damage to your nails (changing the colour or making them brittle). There may also be a reaction on the skin around the nail. If you get it in your eyes, rinse out with water immediately and contact your doctor.

Introduction

Pragna Shatavari Powder is an antifungal medication. It works by preventing fungi from producing ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. Without ergosterol, the fungi stop growing and its cells breakdown. Gradually, the infected nail grows out, until only healthy nail is left.

How to use

Use this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Pragna Shatavari Powder may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
