Loceryl 5% nail lacquer used twice daily

2021-07-07 20:09:55
Hi, Based upon prescription from one of the dermatologist from practo itself, I applied loceryl 5% nail lacquer solution twice in a day for treating toe fungal infection. While reading online and lacquer box, got to know that it should be prescribed only once or twice a week I have stopped using it now. Can you pls let me know if this over usage that continued for 7 days would cause any side effects on my nail now? When should I resume its use?
