Toenail fungus: Is extremely difficult to eradicate even with traditional medications. Most of the home remedies are anecdotal at best and their efficacy remains unproven. Oral Lamisil (terbinafine) remains the most effective documented way to treat this condition.

Not guaranteed.: The reason you hear so many different treatments for toenail fungus is because there is no perfect, sure-fire treatment that works 100% of the time. I've seen vaporub work, as well as other natural oil remedies, but rarely. You can also try laser therapy, antifungal creams, paints, or even oral medications if your doctor deems you healthy enough to take them.
