For Onychomycosis, Toenail "This so-called medicine put me in the hospital for 8 days. I have one disfigured big toe, and the other big toe causes me pain regularly. I talked to the manufacturer, they said that’s a normal side effect."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "Currently, $25 a month copay (retail some stratospheric $500 for 4 ml). I got 4 refills, but my third is my last one. It's too expensive, I would rather spend $25 on a good bottle of rye. If in 6 months there is only a 15-30% chance of improvement after spending $150, not worth it. I got a 1 fl oz bottle of Proclearz for $9 that should last me 6 months. Maybe that'll help. I don't have time to sit there filing down my toenails, I may just live out the rest of my days with this, forget it. I don't know what we are paying for, the intellectual property of something that doesn't work? Lower the price."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I paid out of pocket the discount price of $231.00 for a 4ml bottle. I thought this was expensive, but I believed I had a 48-week supply. I used it once daily on five toes, and the bottle lasted three weeks. No refills for this price. Can't get my money back. No nail improvement. Don't believe the hype. Save your money."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I had a doctor prescribe JUBLIA for me for a mild toenail fungus. It cost me $742.00 twice. It has to be the most inflated, overpriced, most worthless product on the market today!! Anything would work better than JUBLIA!!!"

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "Jublia was prescribed to me after having an allergic reaction to oral medication. My big toe was about 1/2 infected. After using Jublia for the past 4 years, there has been no improvement. The fungus has not increased, but it has also not improved :("

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I bought it without a prescription. It dissolved my thumbnail, which came off completely. The area above the nail blistered, itched, and was heat sensitive. The nail grew back but came off again. Now a deformed, lumpy nail-like thing is growing back. I recently briefly treated the itchy area with tea tree oil and Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and the itching stopped and the blister went away. It feels normal now but looks terrible."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "$2434.00 for an 8 ml, 2-month supply bottle. You're kidding me. And I have to take 12 months' worth. I got a coupon, and my insurance paid a lot, which left me with $200, but that is way too much. Give back to humanity, people. The people selling it will definitely be some of the first to go if an apocalypse happens or a civil war. Lol."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I have been searching for some way to get rid of this toenail fungus for 10 years with no success. I was hopeful that Jublia would work. I applied every morning for over 6 months to no avail. Not only does it not work (like all the others), but it damaged the skin around my nails also. I am so, so frustrated that this is yet another failed attempt to treat this disease. Can't believe that the medical and drug industries are using another disease to rake in money and keep the disease alive. Shame on all of you."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I bought the Jublia medication and applied exactly as prescribed every day for 10 months with basically zero change to all 10 infected toes after this timeframe. I paid nearly $975 per bottle for this stuff, with Blue Cross insurance refusing to cover the prescription; and now I know why-because it just doesn't work! So $10,000 later, I am back to square one. Valeant, the manufacturer of this worthless stuff, should be sued for false claims."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "Beware! Make sure your podiatrist tests your nails for fungus! I saw three podiatrists that did not test and wanted me to take Lamisil. I refused to possibly trade my liver for pretty nails. So, when podiatrist #2 suggested removing the nail and using topical Jublia when it started growing back in, I jumped on it, thinking topical is safer. Within two weeks of using Jublia, all my toes became affected and red and blistered. I thought I had athlete's foot, so I continued while using foot powders and sprays too! Two dermatologists later, I never had fungus; it was psoriasis! Jublia was a 'traumatic' event to my toenails and made the underlying psoriasis go nuts. Now, over a year and a half later, I have psoriatic arthritis in my feet and hands."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "Been using for 8 months on the right big toenail and left and right smallest toenail. Applying every day faithfully, no results. Pay $40 a month copay. What a rip-off. Do not buy and do not waste your money. Why are doctors prescribing this medication when it is not working for so many people? Of course, they get money off this also. So many desperate fools out there being exploited once again by the medical profession. One doctor told me point-blank-'you will never get rid of this problem.' He was right. DO NOT BUY JUBLIA!!!!"

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "My podiatrist prescribed JUBLIA for a minor fungus in 2 toenails in March 2016. When I found out the outrageous price, I asked for other options, and she mentioned laser, but my insurance would not cover the $100 per nail, and according to her, I would have to treat the 10 toenails for it to work. My copayment was $60 a month, and I did 5 months. My nails were getting worse with blisters, bleeding, and finally, it was making holes in the skin of my toes. I went today, and she informed me that I had a reaction to the medicine and to stop applying it and prescribed a steroid cream. A topical prescription that cost $630 should have alerted me that whoever is prescribing it is getting a big kickback. Social media will be alert."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I have been using Jublia for 3 months now. I apply it every evening, keep the nail clipped, filed, clean, and dry. No improvement. Woke up this morning to find red, itchy, and blistered skin and clear pinkish fluid oozing from under my nail! It looks very painful, but I don't feel a thing, thank goodness! While I'm waiting to hear back from my Dr., I'll fill you in on the cost. First, I went to CVS to find out it was $628.00! Received a Walgreens coupon from my Dr., which my insurance allowed for $125.00."

For Onychomycosis, Toenail "I was encouraged in the first eight months, as there seemed to be progress. Recently, an infection has set in, causing great discomfort to the point I am unable to sleep or walk any distance. My toes are in far worse shape than ever."
