I did some homework and&#8230; it screams &#8220;scam&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Fungusil has undecylenic acid which is as good a topical antifungal as is out there (comparable to lamisil, and vinegar). But topicals don&#8217;t have a very good success rate against nail fungus. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.com\/health\/drug-information\/DR601403\">as the Mayo Clinic writes about undecylenic acid:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>undecylenic acid belongs to the group of medicines called antifungals. It is used to treat some types of fungus infections. <strong>However, compound undecylenic acid generally has been replaced by newer and more effective medicines for the treatment of fungus infections<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>A google search turns promotional websites that almost look like comparison sites&#8230; but aren&#8217;t.
