Deodorizer, Antibacterial & Antifungal Ingredients Climbazole is a topical antifungal chemical, commonly used in the treatment of human fungal skin infections like dandruff and eczema. Its chemical structure and properties are similar to other fungicides like ketoconazole and miconazole. It is most commonly found as an active ingredient in OTC anti-dandruff and anti-fungal products, including shampoos, lotions and conditioners. It may be accompanied by other active ingredients like zinc pyrithione or triclosan. Clotrimazole a broad spectrum antifungal agent used for the treatment of skin infections ranging from toenail fungus to athlete s foot and ringworm. It is easily available as an over-the-counter drug, usually in the form of a cream or lotion. It treats fungi by stopping and inhibiting the growth of the membranes that surround the fungal cells. This results in the weakening of the sensitive fungal cell, which makes the cell content leak out, ultimately leading to the death of the fungus. Chloroxylenol (4-chloro-3.5-dimethylphenol) is a chemical compound that is commonly used in antibacterial soaps. Stuedies have shown a low antimicrobial activity, which is enhanced by additives. Its antibacterial action is due to disruption of cell membrane potentials. [2] Farnesol Is a natural organic compound which is an acyclic sesquiterpene alcohol found as a colorless liquid. It is insoluble in water, but miscible with oils. Farnesol is present in many essential oils such as citronella, neroli, cyclamen, lemon grass, tuberose, rose, musk, balsam and tolu. It is used in perfumery to emphasize the odors of sweat floral perfumes. Its method of action for enhancing perfume scent is as a co-solvent that regulates the volatility of the odorants. Farnesol is a natural pesticide for mites and is a pheromone for several other insects. Undecylenic Acid for Nail Fungus Medication - Toenail Fungus Medication General Overview Undecylenic acid has been FDA approved as an over-the-counter treatment for nail fungus. It is also the active ingredient in medications to treat skin conditions like psoriasis and athlete s foot, and can relieve irritation and itching that can come with a nail fungus. The main ingredient naturally has anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe the area around the nail if it is irritated or damaged slightly. How it Works Undecylenic acid is a natural fatty acid derived from castor oil. It is a natural antifungal and it is used in many different products besides a cure for nail fungus, such as perfume, cosmetics, acne medication, and anti-dandruff shampoos. The oil is extracted from the bean and cold-pressed, which renders it odorless and tasteless. The molecule size of Undecylenic acid is small enough to penetrate the skin instead of staying on the surface, which is one reason why it is effective as an antifungal treatment. How to Use After using Undecylenic acid products consistently, you should see some improvement within four to six weeks, when your nail begins to grow in healthy. User Experiences Users of Undecylenic acid report that consistent use and patience is key to making this treatment work more than a few months of daily treatment is necessary to see results, and the nail should start to grow back in healthy within a few weeks. Users also report having to cut the infected nail very short so the liquid can penetrate the infected area. Some also report that it is more effective on athlete s foot than on a nail fungus, but it varies by individual. 26

Minimum Advertised Price Policy (MAP) The MAP policy applies to all GEHWOL products. Our minimum advertised price for GEHWOL products is 85% of the Merchant Suggested Retail Price (SRP), which is a 15% discount off of MSRP. Resellers may offer products on promotion at a lower advertised discount only with written permission from Benestar Corp. The MAP policy may be adjusted by Benestar at its sole discretion. The MAP policy applies only to advertised prices and does not apply to the price at which the products are actually sold or offered for sale to an individual customer within the reseller s retail location or over the phone. GEHWOL resellers are free to sell MAP products at any price they choose. This MAP policy does not in any way limit the ability of any dealer to advertise generic phrases such as that they have the lowest prices or will meet or beat any competitor s prices, or similar phrases so long as the price advertised or listed is not below the MAP. To protect our resellers from unfair competition and to maintain the brand s image, Benestar Corp. will regularly review all reseller commerce sites and conduct in-depth web searches to ensure consistent adherence to this policy. In cases of violation of this MAP policy, resellers will be allowed 24 hours to bring all advertising into compliance. Warnings and written notices will not be provided. Failure to comply immediately will result in discontinued shipments and possible account termination.
