The oral antifungal drugs for treatment of nail fungus seem to be effective but are expensive and not as safe.
While cases of toxicity are rare, I see no reason to take even a small risk for a problem that usually is cosmetic.
In painful cases, podiatrists may temporarily remove infected nails so that a topical antifungal medication can be applied directly to the nail bed.
In stubborn cases, an infected nail can be permanently removed.
