Like Loceryl nail lacquer, Jublia is a prescription topical solution used to treat onychomycosis, a fungal infection that affects toenails.
If you’re using Jublia, you’re probably wondering how long one bottle will last. This article will help you understand how the treatment schedule and recommended use affect how long your bottle of Jublia will last.
How to use Jublia
Your podiatrist will tell you exactly how to use Jublia. Here are some general guidelines.
- Apply Jublia once a day.
- Treatment can take up to 48 weeks, or almost a year.
The most important thing is to cover the entire infected toenail with the medication. Be sure to cover the toenail folds, the toenail bed, the skin under the nail, and the underside of the toenail.
When you get your prescription of Jublia, it will come with an applicator brush that makes it easy to cover the entire surface of the nail.
How long will my Jublia last?
How long your bottle of Jublia lasts depends on a few things:
Severity of your nail infection
If you have a more severe infection that covers more of your nail, you’ll need more Jublia for each application, and your bottle will run out sooner.
Application style
If you tend to apply more than you need, or if you aren’t careful and waste some of the medicine, your bottle won’t last as long.
Bottle size
Jublia comes in a standard bottle size, and that size determines the number of applications you’ll get. Keep in mind that everyone uses the medicine a little differently, so how long a bottle lasts for you may vary.
Frequently Asked Questions
How successful is Jublia?
Jublia’s success rate varies from person to person, but clinical trials have shown that a significant percentage of patients experience improvement in their toenail fungus after using Jublia as directed. It’s not a guaranteed cure, and results can take several months to become noticeable.
Can I wear socks after applying Jublia?
It’s generally recommended to wait a few minutes after applying Jublia to allow it to fully absorb into the nail before putting on socks or shoes. This ensures the medication stays in contact with the infected nail and isn’t wiped off.
How do I get the best results from Jublia?
For best results, apply Jublia exactly as prescribed by your doctor. This typically involves applying it daily to the affected toenail(s) after washing and drying your feet thoroughly. Consistency is key, and it can take several months to see improvement. Clipping the infected nail can also help with penetration.
How much does the pharmacy cost for 2 bottles of Jublia 10%?
The cost of two bottles of Jublia 10% can vary significantly depending on your insurance coverage, pharmacy location, and any available discounts or coupons. Contacting your local pharmacies or checking online pharmacy websites is the best way to get an accurate estimate.
How much does Jublia cost per month?
The monthly cost of Jublia depends on whether you are paying out of pocket or using insurance. With insurance, your copay will determine your monthly expense. Without insurance, Jublia can be quite expensive, but manufacturer coupons or patient assistance programs may help lower the cost.
Putting it all together
Although it depends on how much you need and how often you use it, one bottle of Jublia should last for a good part of your 48-week treatment period if you’re using it correctly. Keep an eye on how much you have left and contact your doctor for a refill when you need one. Also, don’t forget to let your doctor know if you have any side effects.
