Ghana: Oral Treatment of Onychomycosis (Tinea Unguium)

[Ghanaian Times] "I have finger nail infection. I am told it is a fungal infection called Tinea. I have used Griseofulvin in the past. Recently I was put on Itraconazole capsulesby my healthcare provider. My healthcare provider asked me take 200mg twice daily for 1 week, repeat the same for another 1 week the second month and do another 1 week for the third month. The dosing is unusual for me. Will it work?". Yes it will work. It is called Pulse therapy. The alternative is to take 200mg daily for 3 months.
