Efficacy of Topical Antifungal Nail Solution Versus Topical Placebo Solution for the Treatment of Pedal Onychomycosis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Over 9 months, participants using the active treatment showed dramatic improvements, with over half achieving complete fungal elimination and 70% showing significant nail healing. Beyond just getting rid of the fungus, patients reported much better quality of life with less discomfort and improved appearance as early as 3 months into treatment.

Addressing filamentous fungi-related onychomycosis in the era of antifungal resistance: assessment of Zataria multiflora nanostructured lipid carrier topical gel in a double-blinded clinical trial

Nail fungal infections (onychomycosis) are difficult to treat, especially as fungi become resistant to standard antifungal medications. Researchers tested a new gel made from Zataria multiflora (Shirazi thyme) packaged in special nanoparticles that help the medicine penetrate the nail better. In a clinical trial comparing this gel to placebo, the Zataria multiflora treatment showed better results after just 2 weeks, with 70% of patients experiencing fungal cure compared to 55% with placebo.
