Abstract
A nanoparticle composition for treating onychomycosis includes spherical-shaped nanoparticles having a particle size and a particle size distribution and coral-shaped nanoparticles having a particle size and a particle size distribution mixed within a penetrating solvent configured to deliver the nanoparticles to target area of a nail and/or surrounding tissue. The nanoparticle composition can be mixed with a carrier to provide or augment application of the nanoparticle composition to a target area. The penetrating solvent can deliver the nanoparticles to an infected area within the nail and/or at the bed of the nail so as to kill or deactivate the fungal microbes causing the onychomycosis.
