摘要：
Disclosed is a formulation and method for the treatment of fungal infections of the nail (onychomycosis) utilizing a topical composition comprising zinc pyrithione, a solubilizer for the zinc pyrithione, a film former, and a volatile solvent. The formulation is preferably in the form of a lacquer. The composition containing the metal pyrithione complex is topically applied to the infected nail preferably as a nail polish or lacquer which may be applied with a dropper, swab or the like to the afflicted nail surface. The treatment can be done at least two times a day, with a course of treatment lasting from several weeks to several months or until a cure is effected or a significant reduction of the infection is achieved.
