To get rid of toenail fungus quickly requires three things: consistency, using an effective product, and ensuring skin is clear and healthy. No proven method clears toenail fungus (onychomycosis) "quickly"—nails grow at 1–1.5 mm/month, so full clearance takes 9–18 months even with optimal treatment. Consistent daily care is essential to inhibit fungal growth and support healthy nail regrowth. Solix has been proven to improve toenail appearance in as little as 12 weeks.

Oral terbinafine (Lamisil) remains the gold standard: meta-analyses show 38–76% mycologic cure at 12 weeks, compared to 13–23% for topicals alone. This medication is prescription only and some users may not have access to a doctor.  Laser (Nd:YAG) or photodynamic therapy can accelerate results in some trials (50–70% improvement at 6 months), but they are costly and not superior long-term.

It is important to keep nails hydrated and trimmed/filed down regularly. This allows effective topical agents such as Solix to penetrate down to the nail bed, where the fungus lives. 

First, clear any surrounding skin infections (e.g., athlete's foot) with antifungal cream to create a healthy barrier and prevent reinfection.

Silica supports collagen and keratin synthesis, (one of the active ingredients in Solix) reducing brittleness in observational studies (e.g., 20-week trial showed less nail fragility vs placebo). It delivers minerals to the nail bed, potentially speeding healthy outgrowth during treatment.
