Is Tea Tree Oil Advisable Instead Of Terinafine For Toe Nail Fungus?
I already order Terbinafine 250 mg for 6 weeks but I only took 2 days (June 9 & 10 2016) and stopped because when I did my pedicure, the lady told me better use tea tree oil in order to avoid side effects, so, I m stopped taking Terbinafine and planning to buy thea tree oil, please advise, I continue take Terbinafine or switch to use tea tree oil. My toe nail fungus not so serious.Thanks for your attention.

Hello
You can try the tea tree oil, but in general the terbinafine is much more effective so if the oil doesn't help you should continue the terbinafine
