Kerydin

Kerydin (tavaborole) is a topical antifungal medication primarily used to treat onychomycosis, which is a fungal infection of the toenails or fingernails. It is designed to penetrate the nail to reach the site of infection, effectively targeting the fungus. Kerydin is typically prescribed for individuals who have not responded well to other antifungal treatments or who cannot use oral antifungal medications.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Kerydin Work?

Kerydin works by inhibiting the fungal enzyme leucyl-tRNA synthetase, which is essential for protein synthesis in fungi. By blocking this enzyme, Kerydin disrupts fungal cell function and ultimately leads to cell death. This action helps to clear the fungal infection from the nail.

Common Dosages

  • Apply a thin layer of the solution to the affected nail and surrounding skin once daily for up to 48 weeks.

Typical Dosing

  • For onychomycosis: Apply Kerydin once daily to the affected toenail or fingernail, ensuring it is allowed to dry. Continue treatment for up to 48 weeks or as directed by your healthcare provider.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Onychomycosis (fungal nail infection) caused by Trichophyton rubrum and Trichophyton mentagrophytes.

Who Shouldn't Take Kerydin?

  • Known hypersensitivity to tavaborole or any components of the formulation.
  • Open wounds or damaged skin in the area where Kerydin will be applied.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Ensure the affected nail is clean and dry before applying Kerydin.
  • Use the applicator brush to apply the solution to the entire surface of the affected nail and surrounding skin.
  • Allow the solution to dry completely before covering the nail or putting on socks or shoes.
  • Do not use nail polish or other cosmetic products on the treated nail while using Kerydin.
  • Follow the prescribed duration of treatment, even if symptoms improve before completing the course.

  • Application site reactions (redness, itching, or burning)
  • Nail discoloration
  • Nail loss or ingrown nails

Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reactions (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing)
  • Worsening of nail condition or the appearance of new fungal infections.

Risks and Warnings of Kerydin

  • Local Irritation: Some patients may experience skin irritation at the application site. If severe irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare provider.
  • Not for Infected Nails: Kerydin should not be used on nails that are actively infected or inflamed.
  • Superficial Infections: Caution should be taken in patients with superficial infections, as they may require a different treatment approach.

Interactions with Kerydin

Common Drug Interactions

  • Topical medications: Kerydin may interact with other topical treatments applied to the same area. It is best to space applications of different medications to avoid potential interactions.
