Topical treatment for onychomycosis using specific pharmaceutical composition
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11872218B2) discloses a method for treating onychomycosis, a fungal infection of the nail, by topically applying a specific pharmaceutical composition once daily. The composition includes ethanol, diisopropyl adipate, C12-15 alkyl lactate, cyclomethicone, an antioxidant, and a triazole antifungal agent formulated as a solution. The application of this composition is aimed at ameliorating the symptoms associated with onychomycosis.
Furthermore, the patent claims specify the concentrations of each component in the composition, such as the presence of ethanol at a minimum of 50% (w/w), diisopropyl adipate and C12-15 alkyl lactate between 15% and 50% (w/w), and cyclomethicone at less than 25% (w/w). The triazole antifungal agent mentioned in the claims is detailed as (2R,3R)-2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)-3-(4-methylenepiperidine-1-yl)-1-(1H-1,2,4-triazole-1-yl)butane-2-ol, present in the composition at specific concentrations. Notably, the composition does not contain a polymeric film forming compound, as emphasized in the patent claims.
