Penlac® is applied directly to the site of infection Penlac® is applied directly to the infected nail. This means that the active ingredient in Penlac®, called ciclopirox, builds up in the layers of your nail as you apply it each day, focusing the proven antifungal medication where it is most effective. Some systemic medications, such as those taken orally, could have serious side effects as they interact with a greater area of your body. Penlac® is concentrated in one area and has been proven safe. There are no laboratory blood tests required prior to beginning treatment. This makes Penlac® an optimal treatment for those who wish or need to avoid systemic treatments (as advised by your doctor) or those on multiple medications. Find out if Penlac® may be right for you.
