Frequently Asked Questions:

A: Yes. It’s safe for both, but toenails may take longer to fully recover due to slower growth rates.
Q: Is this safe for children or pregnant women?
A: While the ingredients are generally safe, always consult a healthcare provider before using essential oils or hydrogen peroxide on children or during pregnancy.
