- September 1, 2017
"I've been taking Sporanox for 10 months now with no improvement. The fungus is visible in all of my fingernails and all of my toes! I am nearing the end of my second (6-month) treatment and still no results with this medication. Fungus has caused several toenails to curl and become ingrown, so very painful. Doctor won't remove the nails while infected with fungus because nails are too brittle to remove safely without risks of infection."

"I had a fingernail fungus. My PCP told me I'd have it the rest of my life. I was, at the time, in my 20s. In my mid-30s, I saw a dermatologist for a skin problem on my arm. He mentioned my nails and said, 'I know you can't help me.' He looked at it and said it would be gone in a few months. I was put on Sporanox and it was clear in a month. He kept me on it for a year. I am in my 50s and it's never been back!"
