| 5 | TOE FUNGUS | 2ND DAY SO FAR SO GOOD. SLIGHTLY WORRIED BY SOME OF THE STORIES HERE. FIRST MEDICATION TAKEN OTHER THAT ANTIBIOTICS AS A CHILD. WISH ME LUCK! | I RECEIVED THE TERBINIFINE GENERIC FROM MY PHARMACY HOPEFULLY SIDE EFFECTS WILL BE MINIMAL | M | 25 | 90 days 250 1X day | 4/26/2011 | 5 | Nail fungus | Irratibility, but I am already an irritable person so maybe it wasn't the drug. | The only regret I have is why did I wait so long! I had nail fungus bad on my toe nails especially my right big toe. It was in the way of me living my my life. I had a complex. For about 8 years I refused to wear flip flops (I live in Florida by the beach), was cautious to not let anybody see my feet, even my wife for the first year we were dating. I took the generic brand of Lamisil about 1 1/2 years ago for about 6 months. It slowly ate away at the fungus and continued working after i discontinued the pills. It works! My fungus is 95% cured. Even the scaling and itching on the bottom of my feet is 95% gone. I wear sandels and don't hide my feet anymore. If you have fungus take the pill! | M | 41 | 6 months 1X day | 3/30/2011 | 5 | fingernail infection | No side effects. | I take it at night just before bed. Like someone said, don't let it touch your tongue. I throw it in the back of my mouth and drink water. Also eat pudding or ice cream right after. Takes bitter taste out of mouth. Nails are coming in good. | M | 64 | 32 days 250 1X day | 3/16/2011 | 5 | Toe nail fungus | 6 years ago I noticed a white spot on my toe nail (big one) to make a short story I went to see a doctor who told me let your nail fall its gonna be ok after. Couple months after, my nail felt, but never grown as before and just got worse. The passed 4 years I try EVERY external treatment (grapefruit essential oil, some medicinal oil, anti-fungus nail polish, bath foot with javel etc..) So I came to the point taking Lamisil. I read all the comments on that page before using it and it really scared me but took it anyways. It has been my 4th day only, but I notice like a constant smell/taste of carboard. No any side effect for the moment (and hopefully I wont have any other)... So ill keep taking my pills till end of the tretament. | Weird taste/smell (like cardboard) after only 4 days, but no big deal for me. Ill post again in few weeks/month of treatment. | F | 28 | 4 days 250 MG 1X day | 3/11/2011 | 5 | Nail fungus | This medication worked for me. I had no side effects and my nails are growing out. It has taken about 5 months and my nails have grown out about 80%. | F | 26 | 30 days 1X day | 3/10/2011 | 5 | toe nail fungus | Small rash on inner thigh that lasted about two weeks. | Over a period of 20 years, eight of my toe nails became infected. They cracked and got thick and it was uncomfortable to walk. I have an auto-immune disorder and was hesitant to take the drug, but I did fine. My toe nails are almost all grown out and I am happy. It is a thrill to see pink nails with a white top after looking at horrible yellow thick nails for so many years. I can't wait to wear sandals this summer. I had success with this drug. | F | 52 | 90 days 1X day | 2/2/2011 | 5 | toenail fungus | Slight anxiety while on the drug but no other side effects. Definitely worth it. | I had toenail fungus on all toes of my left foot for 12 years. I tried every thing I could find but nothing worked. It has been six months since I finished the drug and my toenails are growing out healthy and clear. | F | 39 | 90 days 250 mg 1X day | 1/2/2011 | 5 | fungus in all 10 toenails | Initial headaches, needed to drink lots of water, alcohol intolerance | Hi - updating a further two years on, and my toenails have been absolutely clear with no topical applications whatsoever since 2008. I recommend to any young people with fungus problems - don't delay; I wish I had taken the lamasil years before. I attempted the full gamut of topical applications, including expensive ones. But please don't drink alcohol during the course of treatment - my reaction to tiny amounts of alcohol was phenomenal. And drink lots of water. I think it's also wise to eat a very healthy diet during treatment - so your liver is taxed as little as possible. | F | 53 | 8 months 250 1X day | 12/29/2010 | 5 | toe nail fungus | None. Topical Lamisil works perfectly. | Directions for use: Apply white vinegar to each nail with a brush. Apply a coating of Lamisil creme once a day in the morning before putting on socks. Please note that this takes 6 months or so and the processed may work faster if application is 2 times a day. You will see amazing results in 6 months. Plus the nail will thin out and not remain thick due to the acidity of the vinegar which allows the Lamisil to permeate into the nail. | 58 | 6 months 30mg 1X day | 12/27/2010 | 5 | toenail fungus in both feet(4 toes) | i didnt experience any noticable side effects during my time with lamisil | it took some time but eventually i started to see clear nail growth...i was skeptical because of some negative remarks on this site with the drug but everything turned out fine...two toenails are now 95% better and my worse toenail which was completely horrible is now half grown out and clear...you can see half of a clear nail its amazing! i know how it felt to have fungal nails and how embarrassing it is, i am almost free of this and so happy about it good luck all | M | 26 | 5 months 1X day | 11/18/2010 | 5 | Toe Nail Fungus | No significant side effects. I did notice the salty, metallic taste. It would come and go. It would also further describe it as being similar to having touched the surface of my tongue to an old 9V battery (kind of an eletrolic sensation). Again... this came and went. Liver tests stayed in the normal range. I drank beer every afternoon, just like always. | Works great... New nails. Small price to pay. I'll be wearing sandles in the future. Very satisfied. | M | 47 | 90 days 250 1X day | 11/11/2010 | 5 | toe fungus | None what-so-ever. | So far I have not experienced any side effects.... haven't seen a differnce in toes, but I will stay optmistic. I think the key is... I take it with a full glass of water right before bed. | M | 28 | 13 days 250mg 1X day | 11/5/2010 | 5 | Toenail Fungus | None - blood tests all came back fine. | Lamisil has worked wonderfully! My toenails are looking great after 10 years of having problems! I tried everything before taking Lamisil and my only regret is not having tried it sooner! People online talk about vinegar baths, Vicks, Listerine, tea tree oil. They all miserably failed in my case and I was persistent with my at home treatments. If you have a very mild case, these things MAY work, but if it has been years do not waste your time or money. Try Lamisil once. Do not listen to those people that say avoid it at all costs. They are welcome to their opinion, but they should not tell anyone to not take a drug just because they had a bad experience with it. You are different and until you try it, you never know how your experience will be. I am proof that you can take this drug symptom free and get great results!! My new pink toenails were almost fully grown-out after only 3 months! I am waiting on my one big toenail that will take another couple months according to my doctor since it is a larger nail. I couldn't be happier and am looking forward to making my first pedicure appointment in over 10 years!! My only other advice is to just communicate with your Doctor about any symptoms and do everything he/she recommends. | F | 31 | 90 days 250 mg 1X day | 10/26/2010 | 5 | toenail fungus | None | Almost did not take this drug after researching and reading some comments on this site. I took the generic for Lamisil. I'm glad I went on it. I did a liver panel before and after 4 weeks just to make sure everything was normal. I'm guessing not too many people with positive results take the time to come back. So, if you get good results, make sure to come back here and let others know. | F | 34 | 90 days 250MG 1X day | 8/16/2010 | 5 | Two toenails infected with fungus | I thought there might have been a slight metallic tinge in my mouth, but if there was, it didn't persist. That's all, folks! | I almost went mad reading all the negative comments here when I researched Lamisil. But everything turned out fine. I didn't worry about hair loss because mine had already said its goodbyes before treatment...lol | M | 25 | 90 days 30 1X day | 7/28/2010 | 5 | fungus | some bloating and stomach weirdness initially | Can't believe all the horrible ratings - I'm guessing all the satisfied people just didn't think to post anything... I took the generic version of this for the full 12 weeks and am seeing an AMAZING change in my toes. Smoother, shinier, pinker, thinner nails. Some yuck is still growing out, but maybe that's because the medication works faster than the nail grows. Very pleased and can't wait until it's all gone! | F | 24 | 12 weeks 250 MG 1X day | 5/26/2010 | 5 | Toenail fungus | Been on the meds for two weeks and have not experienced any side effects yet. Still hoping it will work!! | F | 27 | 14 days 250 mg 1X day | 5/19/2010 Patient History | 5 | toenails to thick to trim | Weird dreams, so what's new. After eating this morning I threw up the whole thing. (Mush, Cottage cheese w/peaches,two whole wheat toast with generous butter and nummy rasberry jam from northern Utah. I was greatful to get rid of it and was not sorry for losing all fifteen pills (prescribed and OTC). I would say it made me feel better to yuck it up. | This was for terbinifide only | M | 73 | 60 days 1X day | 5/9/2010 | 5 | Toenail fungus | Very minimal upset stomach and a few vivid dreams at the beginning, but not much else. It may have caused me to gain about 2-3 pounds, but that could've been something else as well. I did notice that alcohol affected me much more quickly, so I tried to drink a little less. | I'm mostly posting this comment, because I've had great results and no major side effects. After reading a lot of the comments here, I was very nervous and scared when I began the Lamisil. I had my liver test after 6 weeks, and it was fine. Now, it's been a month since I've finished, and I just got a french pedicure. I haven't felt this confident about my toenails in years! | F | 36 | 12 weeks 1X day | 5/4/2010 | 5 | Toe Nail Fungus | No side effects! | Worked great in killing off the fungus! | M | 54 | 90 days Not sure 1X day | 3/29/2010 |
