The invention is a method for treating onychomycosis in humans comprising contacting a fungal infected nail with a composition comprising an effective amount of a copper salt. Most preferably, the fungal infected nail is treated with 10 % (weight/weight) aqueous copper(II)sulfate. Treating human nails with the copper salt composition can be used to detect fungal infection before routine physical symptoms are presented. Fungal infection is also prevented by pre-treatment of nails with the copper salt composition.

L'invention concerne un procédé servant à traiter l'onychomycose chez les humains et consistant à mettre en contact l'ongle infecté par un champignon avec une composition contenant une quantité efficace de sel de cuivre. On traite, dans un mode de réalisation préféré l'ongle infecté avec 10 % (poids/poids) de sulfate de cuivre (II) aqueux. On peut utiliser ce traitement afin de détecter l'infection fongique avant l'apparition de symptômes physiques habituels. On prévient aussi cette infection fongique par traitement préalable des ongles au moyen de cette composition de sel de cuivre.
