E-Gads! Don’t risk ruining your liver & kidneys by taking any oral medications. It isn’t worth the risk! I have the same problem & I found that wearing sandals as much as possible will help to dry up & air out the fungus. Soaking & scraping your feet & toes helps this problem too. Always wear clean socks when you wear closed in shoes & use an anti-fungal cream that you can buy at any 99cent store to keep the spread of the fungus to a minimum. You will need to sanitize & disinfect all the surfaces that your feet come into contact with. Use bleach on your tub & shower florors. Also use bleach on your non-carpeted floors to kill this fungus. Get an anti-bacterial soap for your hands & feet. Replace or disinfect all nail files & equipment after using them on your feet. Have separate files for your hands. Dispose of any shoes that could hold onto the fungus & re-infect your feet each time you wear them. It takes time & patience, but you CAN get it down to a minimum without the use of those oral medications. If you use a pumice stone, soak it in bleach between uses or replace it each month! Bleach all your wash rags, towels & bath mats & DRY your feet after you bathe! I guarantee things will get better!

I gave this answer to a similar question some time ago –
Fungus infestations can refer to athlete’s food. The most common cause of these infestations is the destruction of beneficial bacteria by antibiotics, drugs, or radiation, resulting in the takeover of undesirable fungi. Besides being taken as a drug, antibiotics often are found in the food supply because antibiotic supplements are given to animals as treatment for diseases and also as a food additive. People with any type of fungal infestation should establish an adequate diet, including generous amounts of the A, B, and C vitamins, raw fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and yogurt or acidophilus. Armoatherapy includes lavender, myrrh, patchouli, and tea tree.
Hope this helps you

I heard that Lamisil is great! But I would seriously suggest you go to a pediatrist (foot doctor) I’m sure he/she can give a prescription or another suggestion to help you.

taking a prescription Lamisil will take care of it – it does take some time. Most of the other medications you have to put on every day (liquid) and then change shoes etc. I have not had a great deal of sucess with the liquid but Lamisil did work for awhile but it came back. One dermatogist suggest toe nail removal.

I actually read in the health section of the newspaper this month that applying toothpaste can cure it.
