| RATING | REASON | SIDE EFFECTS FOR LAMISIL AT | COMMENTS | SEX | AGE | DURATION/ DOSAGE | DATE ADDED |
| 1 | Toenail fungus | Complete loss of taste after taking the drug only 3 weeks. I stopped taking it after that and it is 6 months later and still no taste. | I have not only lost 30 pounds, but also some quality of life. Before taking this drug, consider the possibility of not being able to taste your favorite food or even enjoy a dinner celebration at your favorite restaurant. Any enjoyment from eating no longer exists. No toenail fungus is worth this and I still have it since I had to quit the medication. I am told that the taste loss could be permanent given the length of time it has been. | M | 41 | 3 weeks | 10/11/2005 | 1 | Nail infection | Complete loss of taste at day 10 | You would not know how depressing losing your sense of taste is until it happens to you. Starting taking Lamisil 29 days ago. Complete loss of taste since about the 10th day of taking it. Still taking it and hoping taste comes back soon. No improvement to nails yet. | M | 36 | 29 days | 10/15/2005 | 1 | toenail fungus | Loss of taste after 7 weeks, constant metal-salty taste | Not worth the loss of taste. Stopped lamisil four weeks ago, salty metal taste is as strong as ever. Do not take this drug! | F | 53 | 7 weeks | 10/20/2005 | 1 | toenail fungus | After 7 weeks a sudden loss of taste, especially sweet foods taste bland and chalky. Off the medicine for 1 week and still no sense of taste, only a bitter, sour, and metalic taste at all times. I would not have taken this medicine had I researched it first. | Beware of this medicine! | F | 43 | 7 weeks | 10/25/2005 | 1 | Nail Fungus | Stomachache | I've only taken this drug for one day, and I have a persistent pain in my stomach, not like indigestion, but a tightness. Has anyone experienced side-effects this quickly? Is this a sure precursor to more serious problems? | F | 32 | 1 days | 10/26/2005 | 3 | Ringworm skin infection | Depression, anxiety. Having looked at this and other websites, I do think the tablets have something to do with it, though I have been prone to depression in the past (10 years ago). | It is clearing the infection, but had depression been listed as asidede effect, I would have given the herbal remedy I tried longer to work... | M | 30 | 2 weeks | 10/28/2005 | 4 | toe nail fungus | None so far. | New growth looks healthy as it comes in from the base of each nail. However, the fungus area is now turning blue black in color. I hope this indicates death of the fungus. Don't know yet because have not finished taking the meds yet. | F | 62 | 60 days | 10/29/2005 | 1 | toenail fungus | After 3 weeks I got a rash and major taste problems: food tastes metallic and bitter and I have a constant salty taste in my mouth.It has been 1 month since discontinuing,and there is no improvement. | The drug is worse than the condition it is supposed to cure -I wish I had never taken it!How long will it take for my taste to return to normal? | F | 53 | 21 days | 11/10/2005 | 3 | Toe nail fungus | Not too sure if Lamsil is causing these symptons: I am suffering sensitivity and pain around the groin area,I am now on a course of antibiotics as my doctor feels its a urinary tract infection, the antibiotics seem to be making no difference and I would say the symptons are getting worse. I am hoping that Lamaisil tablets are not the cause of this. I wonder if anyone else has experienced these symptons on Lamisil. I have been taking the drug for over 5 weeks. | M | 45 | | 11/26/2005 | 1 | toenail fungus | salty taste in mouth, food tastes terrible, especially chocolate. | stopped taking 2 weeks ago and the salty taste is going away but food still tastes funny, chocolate is still bad. wish I had been told about this side effect, this is much much worse then the toenail fungus. I have gone back to the topical treatment. This medication should be removed from the market! | M | 45 | 35 days | 11/29/2005 | 1 | Toenail Fungus | After a couple of weeks I developed severe tension headaches. My doc didn't believe there was a connection, but as soon as I stopped taking the medication, the headaches stopped. I resumed and finished the perscription and they returned. I had the same side effects when I used the Lamicil cream for athlete's foot. | Lamicil did resolve the fungus problem completely. | M | 64 | 90 days | 12/1/2005 | 5 | Toe fungus | none | Lamisil worked for me,no side effects within 6-9 months of taking my toes were completly clear of any fungus,100% improvement. | M | 44 | 3 months | 12/24/2005 | 1 | toe fugul | Constant nausea, upset stomach,headaches for days,lose hair, vomiting, sleepy all the time, and ithy on the arms. | F | 48 | 3 weeks | 12/26/2005 | 4 | Toenail fungus, ringworm | Inability to lose weight, can't tolerate much alcohol. I also sheepishly submit that my morning stool has a strong, odd, pungent smell. | Had SEVERE athlete's foot and toenail fungus for nearly 20 years. Recently contracted ringworm as well. I'm now near the end of my 90-days of Lamisil AT tablets and ringworm is GONE, athlete's foot is GONE, toenails only slightly better but I understand it takes time for them to grow healthy. We'll see. Not sure yet if it's related to the Lamisil, but I'm active and I've ALWAYS been able to drop weight easily...15 pounds in a month was always a piece of cake...but haven't been able to drop ANY weight at all since starting on Lamisil. Doctor-scheduled liver tests show no abnormalities. At this point the benefits FAR outweigh temporary side effects!!! | M | 43 | 80 days | 12/28/2005 | 1 | toenail fungus, skin fungus | I experienced loss of taste. | I would not recommend this medication to anyone! After doing much research I found the side effects much too risky to clear a cosmetic problem. I lost my taste during Thanksgiving and Christmas and was really angry. I contacted my physician and two seperate pharmacies and no one was able to tell me about this side effect which made me even more angry. | F | 28 | 27 days | 12/30/2005 | 1 | toe nail fungus | sudden loss of tase at 5 weeks | doctor told me this was safer than taking 1 tylenol a day! Have a blood test and if all is well start taking drug and take another blood test 30 days into drug. 2nd test was fine. Very soon after that taste loss occured. Had I realized this side effect I would not have taken the drug. Stopped taking lamisil 1 day ago and am awaiting taste to return. Hopefully it will return quickly. Unless the condition is extremely bad I would not recommend taking this. So glad I found this site. Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to talk with me. | F | 44 | 5 weeks | 12/30/2005 | 5 | toenail infection | none | Brilliant - have recommended it to other people. Took it for 4 months and toe nails are now completely back to normal! | M | 52 | 4 months | 1/9/2006 | 5 | Toe Nail Fungus | For the first couple of days taking the Lamisil pill I experienced mild headaches and a local skin rash. Both cleared up within a week. Since then no side effects. | This is my 45th day (January 19, 2005) taking Lamisil. As per my doctors orders, for one week before I started the first day of therapy I completely cut coffee and alchohol from my diet and have also tried to get an extra hour of sleep. He told me the reason for both of these is to ease the workload on my liver. He also suggested cutting the nail back as far as I could in order to expose the residue beneath, and also rubbing the exposed residue on my toes with 99% rubbing achohol every night before going to bed in order to kill any spores on the surface. I have followed these instructions to the letter. Two weeks ago I had my follow up liver test and everything was ok. The fungus in my nails has actually started flaking away and my new nails have started growing out. For the first time in 20 years my feet are starting to look normal. 45 days to go.....I will let you know how it goes. Feel free to write back with any questions. | M | 44 | 45 days | 1/19/2006 | 1 | nail fungus | nausea, complele loss of taste, I'm very depressed at reading this site, I'm am very very worried, my doctor did not warn me, had I known of these side effects I would never have taken this drug | This drug should be banned | F | 49 | 6 days | 1/22/2006 | 3 | thick toenails | no side affect other than , this might sound funny but it true, longer lasting during intercourse. sound strange but its true. | ill keep u guys informed | M | 53 | 30 days | 1/31/2006 |
