Product Reviews of Tineacide Antifungal Cream, 1.25 Ounce Bottle
Product Review: Works but slowly
Summary: 4 Stars
I have had toenail fungus for at least four years. One of my big toenails had lifted completely away from the skin underneath and was thick and yellow, with almost no healthy (pink) tissue beneath it. I have been applying Tineacide 2-3 times daily for 2 months now and I definitely see improvement. The new nail is growing out normally and is attached to healthy-looking skin underneath. However, it's important to note that when I apply it, I make sure the cream reaches all the way under the nail to where the it is still attached to the skin. This is the only way one can be sure that the product kills fungus at the point where the new nail is being synthesized. Otherwise the fungus will simply infect the new nail as it emerges. I doubt that the product will work if applied to the nail itself, because the active ingredients are unlikely to penetrate the keratin.Product Review: Works if you stick with it
Summary: 4 Stars
I had moderate toenail fungus on several toes for probably 5-7 years before going to a podiatrist on my family doctor's recommendation. The podiatrist said since I didn't have a serious case, it didn't warrant taking the oral antifungal medicine. He had me try the tineacide first. I follow my podiatrist's directions and religiously apply the lotion once a day in the morning (or at least 6 days a week). I still have some fungus on my big toe, but it cleared up all the orangish color and I can go in public wearing flip flops again.
The podiatrist also filed my nails down every three months, but I no longer go to him since my insurance doesn't cover the procedure, and you can do it yourself rather than pay the doctor to do this. It's his opinion that doing this lets the lotion penetrate the nail easier. Also, I apply directly after taking a shower when the nail is softened from the hot water.
I buy the lotion 3 at a time from the podiatrist, who gives patients a discount if they buy 3 or more.

I used it for 3 months and my nails are all worse. Even the ones that didn't have it before are getting it. It's as if this stuff CAUSES fungus.Product Review: good ad - poor work
Summary: 1 Stars
I'm completely agree with those who say that this is only wasting of your money (and time, of course). This treatment - is worthless. And I have no idea how come it works for ones and not for others (like me)??? Since the fungus on toenails are identical, I guess. This way I can't get those comments saying "Great!", "Perfect!", "It works!" and so on. The reason I'm saying it, I started using this product 2 months ago, and I really don't see any improvements. No idea, how all the people posting here have cured their fungus. As I had one small white spot under the edge of the nail on left big toe and same problem on right one 2 months ago, still the same problems are now. As nails on those both toes were growing, I had to cut these white spots and apply Tineacide, but no luck. I kept cutting the edge of both toenails over and over (as those white spots were becoming visible again) and applied Tineacide. But these small spots still remained, so it means the #1 treatment recommended by podiatrists (as it says on the bottle) has not done what it was supposed to. Why are the customers fooled?
