Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "Doesn’t work anything near what the commercials advertise. Used twice a day for a week, then once a day for a week, there wasn’t any change and my great toe was considered minor according to my doctor, but I decided to try this Kerasal product. It’s expensive and useless. I decided to use lamsil antifungal cream and it disappeared in less than a week. Only if had read the small print, which tells you that this product really doesn’t work, I would have saved my money, I only paid attention to the television commercials, which is misleading"

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "It does not work at all. Save your money as it makes no improvements. Used it for over a month hoping to see improvement, but it made it worse if that’s possible. In my case it was a waste of time, money, and effort."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "I used this product every day for over three months on my big toe to cure nail fungus. Unfortunately it has done absolutely nothing to improve the condition of my toe, I guess I have wasted my money again."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "I bought this product for discoloration of my toe nails. I work in a production facility wearing steel toes all the time but I’m not sure exactly what caused the discoloration. My foot doctor prescribed tavaborole but it wasn’t covered by my insurance. I seen a change almost immediately after using Kerasal. I was skeptical about its claim to see results in 2 days but I wish I had before and after pictures. When I started to notice results I started to document the progress and I refer all my friends/family to get it if they have the same problem. It was pretty expensive to me but I took a chance and it was worth it. It’s working so well I had to look up more information and that’s how I landed here talking about my experience. Hope this helps!"

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "I had fungus on my toes for over a couple of years. Didn’t really realize it was a fungus but thought it was just discoloration due to old age. Finally went to a doctor to see about it and was told to use Kerasal. It took a long time, I’ve been using this daily for almost 9 months. At first I didn’t think it was working but now my nails are almost totally normal. Toe nails are slow growing so it takes awhile. I have about an eighth of an inch to grow out & it will be fully clear. My nails look so much better, can’t believe the difference but you have to stick with it. Consistency pays off. The 2 week improvement may work for some people, but my problem had been ignored for a long time. Just stick with it and don’t give up. You’ll be thrilled that you did."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "I probably over-used the product. I put quite a bit on, twice a day, for 2 weeks. Then once a day for another week. The discoloration of my nail changed a bit for the better. Maybe a little less thick, but I think because I had fungus so bad it will take a while. Today I noticed my skin was red and puffy. And about two weeks ago, I started having extremely bad dizzy spells. Usually at noon and around bedtime. Rapid heartbeat too. Intermittent. I have not changed anything with diet, fluid or medication, besides kerasal. So I think I’m having a reaction and I’m going to stop it today."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "I have seen a big difference on my toenails. I had one big area on my big toe that was completely black in color. It's already taken a lot out of it while just putting it on 20 minutes ago. I've tried other fungus products but nothing compares to Kerasal. I'm so amazed. I can actually feel a little something on my toenails like it's working. I had no side effects. And it is so easy to use. Give it a try. I even canceled my doctor's appointment I had scheduled for my fungus toenails. People are saying it's too expensive. I say a doctor's visit would have been so much more. Thank you."

Kerasal (salicylic acid/urea) for Foot Care "I have had toe fungus for years on my two big toes. I have used almost everything - all prescription drugs and even used homeopathic stuff; nothing ever worked. I have only used the Kerasal patches at night for only 4 nights and see a remarkable difference. I am so glad I finally found something that worked. Now I don't need to be self-conscious about my toes. Thank you so much."

For Foot Care "This was an absolutely HORRIBLE experience I feel like my feet are going to disintegrate. This is the next day and the pain and throbbing is so bad I may just have to go to the emergency room. PLEASE, PLEASE, I urge anyone that has dry callus feet to talk to your doctor first. I thought it would be a great idea and so reasonable at EBay. This should be by Rx only❗️PLEASE don’t use speak to doctor PLEASE ❗️This Pain is just HORRIBLE ❗️"
