How effective are Nailin capsules 100 mg from Japan for nail tinea (fosravuconazole, fungi, nail fungi, antifungal, onychomycosis)?

Nailin capsules contain fosravuconazole L-lysine ethanolate, an active prodrug converted in the body to ravuconazole, a triazole antifungal agent. It works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, which is a cellular membrane component of fungi. Nailin capsules are generally safe and sufficiently tolerable, and while fosravuconazole does accumulate in the liver, this action is reversable and does not provoke serious hepatic functional disorders.
