Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Zydiwon Cream consists of Amorolfine that should be used after consulting with a physician if a person has raised blood sugar levels (diabetes mellitus).
You are required to maintain at least a three-hour gap after application of Zydiwon Cream if you are using more than one topical medicine.
No, do not stop using Zydiwon Cream on your own even if the symptoms are relieved until your course, as advised by the physician, is finished.
Zydiwon Cream is for topical (for skin) use only. Do not put a bandage or dressing on the affected area while treating with Zydiwon Cream unless the physician advises. If the medicine gets into your eyes, nose, mouth or vagina, rinse with cold water. Do not apply Zydiwon Cream on open wounds, lesions and blisters.
Zydiwon Cream, when used for longer periods, can cause thinning and weakening of the skin. Please stop using Zydiwon Cream and immediately consult your physician if you notice these symptoms.
You are recommended to apply makeup or sunscreen to the treated area of skin after a minimum of 20 minutes of using Zydiwon Cream.
The duration for using Zydiwon Cream depends on the type and severity of the fungal infection. However, you are recommended to use Zydiwon Cream for as long as your doctor has prescribed it, to avoid recurrence of infection. If the condition worsens or persists, please consult a doctor.
Zydiwon Cream takes a few days or weeks to clear up the infection due to the slow growth of nails, type and severity of the fungal infection. Therefore, it is important to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop using Zydiwon Cream even if you notice improvement, to ensure the infection is fully treated and to prevent recurrence.
Store Zydiwon Cream at a temperature not exceeding 25°C. Do not freeze. Tightly close the cap after usage to prevent contamination. Keep it out of reach of children.

Filing is typically done before the very first application and then occasionally as directed by your doctor to help the medication absorb. Avoid over-filing, which can thin and weaken the nail excessively. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist for a personalised nail-care schedule.
If you notice increased swelling, redness, pain, or spreading of the infection despite consistent use, stop using the medication and seek medical advice. This could indicate a secondary bacterial infection or an allergic reaction. Talk to your doctor immediately to re-evaluate your treatment.
