If you’ve done any research online or in a pharmacy, you know by now that there are probably close to a hundred different treatments for fighting nail fungus. There are oral medications, prescription-only medications and topical solutions. This post is going to only discuss the topical solutions since these are generally the most popular and most widely used treatments. How can one distinguish or choose one product from the enormous amount of options available? For starters, identify the active ingredient. There are 4 ingredients that have been approved by the FDA for eliminating the fungus that causes fungal infections. These ingredients are undecylenic acid, tolnaftate, miconazole, and clotrimazole. The first two are the most common in nail fungus treatments and are considered to be the most effective in fighting all types of fungal infections. But since many topical nail fungus products have either of those two ingredients, what else separates the average products from the truly effective products?
Generally what distinguishes one product from another if the active ingredients are the same are the non-active ingredients that make up the rest of the solution. Some products old in pharmacies are simply the active ingredient with one or two supporting elements. These are the often the least effective treatments since there are a minimum of anti-fungal elements in the solutions. Although the active ingredient plays a large part in the efficacy of each product, a truly effective solution will have a number of other anti-fungal ingredients that work in conjunction with the active. There are hundreds of organic and herbal elements that are considered to be effective in the treatment of fungal infections. Elements such as tea tree oil, lavender oil, methol, camphor and others have been sometimes been known to be effective treatments when used by themselves. So when these ingredients are mixed with an anti-fungal active ingredient, the result is a nail fungus product with higher efficacy.
The ingredient list of Funginix is most extensive of any topical solution available. We believe that by combining a known active ingredient with anti-fungal characteristics with a long list of herbal and organic anti-fungal elements, the chances are greater that the treatment will be effective on most infections. Compare our list of ingredients with any other leading topical nail fungus product and you will quickly see why Funginix has higher efficacy ratings than any of the competition. The more anti-fungal elements that are put to work when fighting a fungal infection, the greater the chances are that the infection will be fully eliminated.
