can you build up a tolerance for penicillin?

[antonio andolini]

Specifically, Penlac?( A penicillin laquer for the nails)

Disagree with everyone else.

You can't build up resistance to penicillin. However, the bugs that live in around your body can.

Penlac does not contain penicillin. It contains ciclopirox, which "may" have antifungal activity under some circumstances.

However, there is little evidence that nail varnish containing ciclopirox makes any difference to fungal nail infections.

It has tentative FDA approval. Painting it on your nails probably won't do you any harm. It remains to be seen whether it will help fix fungal nail infections.

Your body can build up a resistance to anything that you use too often.

agree with everyone else..you can build up a tolerance of anything....problem is....the higher the tolerance...the more it takes to work...the more it takes to work...the more dangerous it becomes for your body to consume...
