Onychomycosis

Toenail Fungus treatment reviews

What is toenail fungus?

Toenail fungus (onychomycosis) is a common fungal infection of the nail plate and nail bed. Because toenails grow slowly, any treatment — topical or oral — takes months before the nail looks clear. Vuret offers two prescription topicals: Vuret Original and Vuret 2.0.

Common signs

  • Yellow, white or brown discoloration
  • Thickened or crumbly nail
  • Nail lifting from the bed
  • Distorted nail shape

When to see a doctor in person

See a clinician in person if you have diabetes, poor circulation, pain, redness spreading to the skin, or signs of a bacterial infection.

Switched from Original and glad I did

Angela M. · Georgia · Used for 9 months · Vuret 2.0 ·

Original helped a bit but stalled. The provider moved me to 2.0 and by month four the new growth looked noticeably cleaner. Still growing out but I'm wearing sandals again.

★★★★★

Slow, but the new growth is clear

Mark T. · Ohio · Used for 8 months · Vuret Original ·

I went in knowing it would take most of a year and that's exactly how it's played out. Around month three I could see a clear band at the base. Now about half the nail is normal. The pen is easy to use every night after a shower.

★★★★★

Good results, takes discipline

Steven B. · Michigan · Used for 6 months · Vuret 2.0 ·

No smell, goes on easily, dries fast. Improvement is real and steady, though you do have to be consistent every single night. The free clipper set is a nice touch.

★★★★★

Year one done

Maria S. · California · Used for 12 months · Vuret 2.0 ·

Twelve months in. Two nails are clear, one still has a small patch at the tip that should grow out. I liked never having to go to an office or get labs.
