Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "It does not work at all. Save your money as it makes no improvements. Used it for over a month hoping to see improvement, but it made it worse if that’s possible. In my case it was a waste of time, money, and effort."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I used this product every day for over three months on my big toe to cure nail fungus. Unfortunately it has done absolutely nothing to improve the condition of my toe, I guess I have wasted my money again."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I bought this product for discoloration of my toe nails. I work in a production facility wearing steel toes all the time but I’m not sure exactly what caused the discoloration. My foot doctor prescribed tavaborole but it wasn’t covered by my insurance. I seen a change almost immediately after using Kerasal. I was skeptical about its claim to see results in 2 days but I wish I had before and after pictures. When I started to notice results I started to document the progress and I refer all my friends/family to get it if they have the same problem. It was pretty expensive to me but I took a chance and it was worth it. It’s working so well I had to look up more information and that’s how I landed here talking about my experience. Hope this helps!"

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I had fungus on my toes for over a couple of years. Didn’t really realize it was a fungus but thought it was just discoloration due to old age. Finally went to a doctor to see about it and was told to use Kerasal. It took a long time, I’ve been using this daily for almost 9 months. At first I didn’t think it was working but now my nails are almost totally normal. Toe nails are slow growing so it takes awhile. I have about an eighth of an inch to grow out & it will be fully clear. My nails look so much better, can’t believe the difference but you have to stick with it. Consistency pays off. The 2 week improvement may work for some people, but my problem had been ignored for a long time. Just stick with it and don’t give up. You’ll be thrilled that you did."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I probably over-used the product. I put quite a bit on, twice a day, for 2 weeks. Then once a day for another week. The discoloration of my nail changed a bit for the better. Maybe a little less thick, but I think because I had fungus so bad it will take a while. Today I noticed my skin was red and puffy. And about two weeks ago, I started having extremely bad dizzy spells. Usually at noon and around bedtime. Rapid heartbeat too. Intermittent. I have not changed anything with diet, fluid or medication, besides kerasal. So I think I’m having a reaction and I’m going to stop it today."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I’ve use this product for two weeks twice a day for a week and then one day a week for a week. I then went to trim my big toenail and my toenail fell apart was destroyed it was soft and came apart from the bed. Now my other toenail looks beautiful. I had to stop using it"

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I have seen a big difference on my toenails. I had one big area on my big toe that was completely black in color. It's already taken a lot out of it while just putting it on 20 minutes ago. I've tried other fungus products but nothing compares to Kerasal. I'm so amazed. I can actually feel a little something on my toenails like it's working. I had no side effects. And it is so easy to use. Give it a try. I even canceled my doctor's appointment I had scheduled for my fungus toenails. People are saying it's too expensive. I say a doctor's visit would have been so much more. Thank you."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "I have had toe fungus for years on my two big toes. I have used almost everything - all prescription drugs and even used homeopathic stuff; nothing ever worked. I have only used the Kerasal patches at night for only 4 nights and see a remarkable difference. I am so glad I finally found something that worked. Now I don't need to be self-conscious about my toes. Thank you so much."

"This was an absolutely HORRIBLE experience I feel like my feet are going to disintegrate. This is the next day and the pain and throbbing is so bad I may just have to go to the emergency room. PLEASE, PLEASE, I urge anyone that has dry callus feet to talk to your doctor first. I thought it would be a great idea and so reasonable at EBay. This should be by Rx only❗️PLEASE don’t use speak to doctor PLEASE ❗️This Pain is just HORRIBLE ❗️"

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) "Doesn’t work anything near what the commercials advertise. Used twice a day for a week, then once a day for a week, there wasn’t any change and my great toe was considered minor according to my doctor, but I decided to try this Kerasal product. It’s expensive and useless. I decided to use lamsil antifungal cream and it disappeared in less than a week. Only if had read the small print, which tells you that this product really doesn’t work, I would have saved my money, I only paid attention to the television commercials, which is misleading"
