| 5 | tonail fungus | none to speak of | Its been 2.5 months since i took my 90 day regiment..i had fungus on 8 out of 10 nails... I would say they are about 95% clear now. I foo t is completely the other 3 out of 5 is completely clear.. They say this stays in your system for 6 months so i am confident it will be all gone by then.....If you can tolerate the drug it works well...I was lucky, no real side effects... | M | 43 | 90 days 250 1X day | 2/19/2010 | 5 | Ringworm | I was not on it long enough to notice any negative side effects, but I did feel a little more sleepy than usual. I think I did have some bloating, but it was most likely due to my period. | I took lamisil for two weeks and one day along with oxistat cream applied to the ringworm infections twice daily and I saw results within a few days. It definitely cleared up the ringworm that was spreading over my body. I highly recommend it as a last resort to get rid of stubborn fungus. If you have ringworm and it won't go away with external medicine definitely take lamisil for the recommended two week period. | F | 23 | 2 weeks 250 mg 1X day | 2/12/2010 | 5 | Fungus in Finger/Toenails | NONE | Starting to see all nails clearing up,2-3mm so far on big toenails. No more problems with skin peeling on hands and feet. Taking 250mg tabs every other day. Just had liver tests, excellent results. Alcohol intake moderate. Happy as can be!!! | M | 51 | 45 days | 1/1/2010 | 5 | toenail fungus | nothing major: dry mouth; slight metallic taste; occasional very brief waves of nausea | I'd tried everything else: 7 months of twice-daily vinegar soaks and tea tree oil; another 7 months of Zeta Clear 3 times a day; months of massaging Vicks Vapo-Rub into them; several months of OTC creams and hydrogen peroxide. There was no effect on the fungus and it kept moving from nail to nail. I was nervous about Lamisil, but it has worked wonderfully. After 15 years my nails look almost normal! The only hassle was avoiding alcohol, though I did have a single drink once every 3-4 weeks. | F | 59 | 80 days | 12/30/2009 | 5 | Tonail fungus 8 out of 10 | None besides some minor stomach twinges early on... | Within a week I could see the improvement starting...It has been 11 weeks now and I really can see the difference.. I have had this for 15 years and has slowly gotten worse..My 4 year old telling eveyone I have yellow and black toes was the reason I finally started the treatment....LFT and CBC fine after 60 days so I am continuing....4 nails completely clear..two more almost grown out.. Both big toes and little toes are improving,but they were really bad..4 days to go..BTW you can get the generic lamasil at wal-mart for $4.00 for 30 days...so $12.00 for the 3 month treatment..afar cry from the $1000.00 it was originally for the 90 day supply...When you get it just tell them you have no insurance...I am glad its almost over...It would have been had I not missed somes doses during the month..Now the waiting game waiting for the nails to fnish growing out | M | 43 | 85 days | 12/2/2009 | 5 | Tonail fungus 8 out of 10 | None besides some minor stomach twinges early on... | Within a week I could see the improvement starting...It has been 11 weeks now and I really can see the difference..

I have had this for 15 years and has slowly gotten worse..My 4 year old telling eveyone I have yellow and black toes was the reason I finally started the treatment....LFT and CBC fine after 30 days so I am continuing....waiting for my 60 day results now...4 nails completely clear..two more almost grown out..

Before treatment I thought I had eczema AND fungus because of the red, peeling irritated skin and little blisters and the thick white nail. My regular dr. told me to watch it on 2 visits in 6 months; went to a walk-in and the dr. there said "yup that's fungus" and I got on Lamasil that night. Now the top half of the nail is white and thick, bottom half is growing in pink and pretty. Hope it works for good! | F | 25 | 90 days | 10/27/2009 | 5 | Tonail Fungus | Weight gain, Bloating and gas other thna that everything was fine I was on for 90days, my toes and feet cleared up and look great i was able to where flip flopswith out feeling like people were stairing at my feet. | M | 47 | 90 days | 10/11/2009 | 5 | Tonail fungus 8 out of 10 | None really to report,slight muscle twitching in my stomach on occasion... | Within a week I could see the improvement starting...It has been 5 weeks now and I really can see the difference.. I have had this for 15 years and has slowly gotten worse..My 4 year old telling eveyone I have yellow and black toes was the reason I finally started the treatment....LFT and CBC fine after 30 days so I am continuing....BTW you can get the generic lamasil at wal-mart for $4.00 for 30 days...so $12.00 for the 3 month treatment..afar cry from the $1000.00 it was originally for the 90 day supply...When you get it just tell them you have no insurance | M | 43 | 5 weeks | 9/29/2009 | 5 | 15yrs of toenail fungus in 3 nails | pretty minor. I actually didn't let myself read the side effects until I had been on it for several weeks. The only thing I recognized was a slight taste thing...a minor price to pay for the fungus FINALLY going away! | try it "blind" for a few weeks, THEN see if any symptoms match. I bet it won't be as bad as all these warnings if you don't know what you're looking for. | F | 43 | 90 days | 9/26/2009 | 5 | Toenail and fingernail fungus | Started taking the Lamisil and had some digestive pain, gassy! Called my doctor and she told me to take with food. After i started taking with food all was well. | Cleared up my skin and fingernails right away, waiting for my toenails to grow out now. Should've done this long ago. | M | 39 | 90 days | 9/12/2009 | 5 | Nail Fungus | No side effects. | Just took my 90th dose of generic Lamisil. Toe nails are growing new and healthy. The skin on my feet has improved 100%. Wish I would have done this 10 years ago. I did not change my diet or drinking habits at all. Liver function normal throughout. Fortunately I didn't let this site scare me away. Bottom line: you're either allergic to this drug or not. If your not it can cure your nail fungus. | M | 37 | 90 days | 9/3/2009 | 5 | toenail fungus on right foot | initial fatigue but may have just been due to the weather | Finished the generic form this week and already have clear nails growing in. I wish I'd done this earlier because I've had this fungus for years. I researched the drug beforehand and believe my success had to do with drinking a lot of water, avoiding alcohol (for the most part), and eating healthy. Took the medicine before bed every night so that it didn't affect my stomach during the day. | F | 20 | 90 days | 8/15/2009 | 5 | Fungus on two toes | Side effects have been very minor and transient: a mild alteration of the taste of food and small sores inside my mouth. There was some initial bloatedness, but that went away in a couple of weeks. | The results have been swift and dramatic even after a month of use, and far outweight any of the side effects. I have endured nail fungus for two years and tried to go "drug free" with the antifungal nail polish, but to no avail. I wish I had decided to begin this regimen a long time ago. | F | 51 | 30 days | 8/10/2009 | 5 | Fungus on big toe | No side effects while on Lamisil. | Just finished my 90 day course and already seen drastic results. I feel so cofident now that I am able to wear sandals again. My son who is 11 also has problems with his toenails and now he is takeing lamasil. He has 20 more days left to go. Very much pleased. I had checked w/Pharmacist and he told me it can affect your liver ONLY if you take it for long periods of time and 90 days was not going to hurt anything. Liver function test were fine!! Woo-hoo cant wait to show off my beautiful toes again!! | F | 34 | 90 days | 7/20/2009 | 5 | Nail Fungus (big toes) | Mild burning in my stomach, remedied by taking with food. Nothing worse than that. I feel the need for a tums more often than I used to, but I could use the calcium supplementation anyway. Took Generic. | Definitely helped. I've had this fungus for 10 to 15 years now. I tried having the nail removed with no cure. This has all but the tiniest sliver gone. I read that Lamisil stays in your nail bed for a while after you stop taking it, but I may visit my doc anyway and get her opinion. I heard pure cranberry juice is good for your liver, helps to clean it out. I can't reasonably afford that, but I bought the no sugar added variety from Ocean Spray and drank 8 oz of that every day. Kept away from alcohol. Wore open-toe shoes to prevent recontamination (ideally). Eating a larger variety of veggies, too (also heard that was good for the liver). I can't avoid painkillers and other things that aren't good for the liver (except alcohol) because I get migraines a few times a month and "can't live" without my meds. Very healthy, otherwise. The only other pill or drug I take regularly is birth control. I don't even take a vitamin. | F | 30 | 4 months | 7/20/2009 | 5 | Toe Nail Fungus | No Side Effects At All | I was very apprehensive about taking Lamisil, especially after reading all of the comments on this site. Just remember that a lot of people that do well on this medicine to not take the time to comment so unfortuantely there are more postings about side effects etc. I had no side effects at all and my nails are looking much better. I was actually able to go for a pedicure and not be embarrased about people seeing my toes. That was such a great feeling, I haven't been able to do that for years because I was too embarrassed. | F | 38 | 90 days | 6/1/2009 | 5 | Toenail fungus | I had no side effects. | I did research that included this web site before taking the drug. I then took the drug with great trepidation and great trust in God to get me through. I praise God for his aid. My toenails responded well enough for me to don flip flops. There is a new laser treatment at approx $1000. I learned of the laser midway through my 90 days. I had my midway doctor visit with no change in my liver test yet another answered prayer. I then questioned my physician about the laser who expressed great faith in the laser. For those scared to take the pill save for the laser if your insurance won't cover. | M | 42 | 90 days | 5/3/2009 |
