From Amazon
All referenced Amazon reviews below are from Verified Purchases.
1. You have to cut your toenail back as far as you can go. I only had one toenail.
2. Then file the top of the toe nail to “break” the top surface then apply the funginix so it can get to the fungus. Throw away file Do not re-use! I get my “mini” files in bulk at Ross or Marshals.
3. wear a band aide over it to keep it for as long as you can so it doesn’t soak into your socks.
4. OR wear flip flops so the it doesn’t soak into anything else.
5. Make sure you dry your feet separately with like a paper towel so the fungus doesn’t get on other things. Throw away paper towel.
6. repeat Daily ! until the fungus is killed. Patience and it does work.”

Website
www.funginix.comFunginix is an all natural formula containing multiple marketable ingredients. In our opinion, the most critical ingredient is Undecylenic Acid because it is recognized on the monograph link 1.
After closely evaluating the provided literature, we confirmed Undecylenic Acid is the active ingredient at 10%, the maximum permitted amount suggestedlink 1.
Funginix has a notable scent, a strong pine like odor. It is not unpleasant however people who are sensitive to strong scents should be advised. Funginix is administered through a built in bottle top applicator brush which can be viewed in more detail in the provided images later in this review. It dries relatively quickly on the nail within a few short minutes. It’s unclear as to whether or not this product can be used in combination with nail polish.
I think it’s important to note that Funginix also contains Camphor which helps reduce swelling and redness for people experiencing pain around the cuticle or nail bed.

How many times am I suppose to apply this? I would give it 4 stars if it weren't for the price and unclear instructions. I do think this product will work though.
Watching my toenails thicken and deform, thinking that this was just ageing, and after bruising and losing them repeatedly after long hikes, I finally checked with a podiatrist, got a laser treatment to start off with and then began with conscientious application of Funginix. I'm 2 months in, reordering, and enjoying watching my healthy toenails growing in!
Unfortunately, I've had to use this more than once but it does do the job. I wish there was a way to avoid fungus altogether but it seems to be a reality at my age.
Overpriced product that has done little to nothing so far
I used Funginix for awhile and saw some difference on my small toenail. I'll continue to use it. It has a strong pine like smell that I don't mind and seems to be doing the trick.
