Nail fungal infection is also known as onychomycosis or tinea unguium and is caused by many different types of fungi (yeasts or molds) .

Well I cannot actually see any reasons,so I might as well just give my own.A drug might not recieve FDA approval because they need to find the good chemicals and the bad chemicals in the drug.If they find any bad chemicals in the drug,they will not approve it.Hope this helps!!!!
