    Oregano oil???

    Posted from a previous posts someone said that this works for toe fungus. I have been looking online about this stuff and let me tell you that I can see that you can easily get screwed! The prices range anywhere from 18.00-50.00. The percentages of oil in the product range from 50%-85%.

    I think I will talk to my pharmacist about this stuff and see if he has some recommendations on where to find a safe place to buy it.

        find out what the active ingredient is, the i ngredient that actually cures the fungus. maybe it can be bought cheaply in another form.

            I ordered mine on line from GNC so it's probably in the store, too..... it was $18.....it says it's 1 oz......60% carvacrol. Stinks! It's also supposed to be good for sinus infections.

                  was it on this board that we discussed using vick's vapor rub twice a day on the toes with fungus? the nail does have to grow out though. it doesn't have a great smell although it doesn't smell up a whole room. tub costs around $10

                    Vicks Rub Is Suppose To Work Or Toenail Fungus Also. And I'm Sure It's Alot Cheaper!

                      I have found many essential oils at my local bulk food store. The prices were high but not outrageous.

                        This was recommended to me many years ago for fingernail fungus associated with the acrylic nails.

                          When I had fungas from acrylic nails I made up a solution of bleach water. I used it daily and it cleared it up right away.
