| 5 | toe fungus | None. | Worked fine for nail fungus and also cleared up athletes foot and jock itch. I had toe injury near the end of the treatment that allowed one toe not to heal. | M | 50 | 90 days | 10/23/2004 | 5 | Fingers, toes | Anxiety/depression; gastro-intestinal distress; light-headedness; need to sleep | The doctor prescribed one pill per day. That dosage wrecked me. I went off the medicine after a week and felt better after another 2 days. Went on again for two days, off for two days, like that. The doctor said no problem, because it's a slow-release medicine and works over time. So I thought, why not try half a pill every day. That was better, regarding side effects. Then I decided, half a pill every three days. The nails grew out clear and I don't get the side-effects. | M | 57 | 4 months | 10/7/2006 | 5 | All toenails infected | 3rd Month so far so good | My doctor prescribed an unusual form of taking this medication. I take 1 250MG tablet a day for ten days, then nothing for 20 days and start over again for 9 months. I like this because it is easier for me to afford the 10 pills a month. But so far it is working great!! No side effects so far that I know. and my toes are clearing up and looking very healthy. I was scared to take this medication after all I read, but figured I would monitor my health very carefully while taking this. I took pictures of my toenails before and every month and man what a difference!! Good Luck! | M | 34 | 3 months | 10/5/2006 | 5 | Toenail Fungus | None. | No side effects at all. I had liver checked at end of month 1 and 2. I took it for 3 months then skipped a month and took another month on for a total of 4 months. It is now 8 months later and the fungus is completely gone! Don't expect it to be gone when you are done the pills - it takes time after you are done the pills to see effects. | M | 34 | 4 months | 6/5/2007 | 5 | bad nail Fungus on Toes and fingers | I cannot say that I had any effects that I have noticed specificly. Maybe that I had got a drier mouth. | One thing that I have been very strict about is not to drink ANY alcohol during this time. This is a tough drug for your liver, so I rather stay off my beers then get a messed up liver. Will stay of alcohol for a few weeks after I'm done as well. only have a few weeks to Go. I'm VERY happy about my results. I had nails faling off my fingers and they hurted like hell, now 2 month into my treatment, my nails are coming back and I'm very pleased with the result so far. It is an expensive treatment, but I guess I got my money back from not drinking, so I guess I'm even on that matter. | M | 35 | 10 weeks | 7/11/2007 | 5 | Toenail Fungus | In the beginning I had some minor chest pains but only for 2 days then disappeared. | Don't be afraid of taking this drug, it was tested for years on hundred's of thousands of individuals before coming out. "Changes in taste perception, diarrhea, loss of appetite, nausea, stomach upset, or vomiting. As your body adjusts to the drug terbinafine, these side effects should diminish or disappear." ~ as they did for me. Take it for more than a week or two before you make a decision to quit, it's definitely worth not having disgusting looking toe nails anymore (which I had for 5 years before taking the drug). I've already taken the drug for 4 weeks and plan on taking it for the remaining 8. Also I have drank alcohol one day out of each weekend (maybe 5-6 drinks the nights that I drank), and taken a blood test every 2 weeks since I started taking the drug which checked my liver enzymes. Each test resulted in a perfectly healthy liver. Good luck you guys. | M | 23 | 4 weeks | 8/2/2007 | 5 | toe nail fungus | none | on my fifth week of lamisil. my toenail from the nail bed up to halfway has grown back clean. i am amazed. looks like a few more weeks and i should be done with the medication. absolutely no side effects. | M | 47 | 5 weeks | 11/26/2007 | 5 | Toenail Fungus | None. | After a lifetime of battling this ugly fungus my husband took Lamisil a couple years ago and he is so glad that he did. He thought that his course of drugs was only 30 days but maybe he's not remembering it properly. I am a 58 yr old female and I'm just starting the treatment myself and I will post my experience with it when finished. | M | 65 | 30 days | 1/17/2008 | 5 | toe nail fungus | None at all! DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL DURING OR AFTER THE USE OF LAMISIL. It WILL have an affect on your liver test results. | It definitely worked for me. My toe nails look great! | M | 28 | 3 months | 7/30/2008 | 5 | Fungus on fingernails and toenails | random nosebleeds, slight loss of appetite that returned two weeks after finishing medicine | when i drank alcohol, it seemed to affect me much faster.. so keep that in mind.. alcohol and lamisil probably shouldn't be taken together anyway even with the side effects, this medicine works and is very much worth it | M | 33 | 12 weeks | 8/18/2009 | 5 | Toenail fungus/cracking feet | None | I've had the nail fungus on 3 toes on each foot for about 20 years and have tried everything to get rid of it. Even the bottoms of my feet were infected and would crack and hurt when I walked. Even worse was the embarrassment to wear sandals, go swimming or walk on the beach. I finally decided to try Lamisil about 65 days ago, so only 3 weeks to go! No side effects, even though after reading all of the posts, my mind was playing tricks on me, making me believe I had various problems. After about 30 days, I noticed the bottoms of my feet were clearing up and no longer cracking! I was even experiencing skin peeling between my thumb and forefinger that drove my wife nuts, since I had a habit of peeling it off...and that completely cleared up also! So, those two problems alone has made the choice well worth it! No more soaking and scraping my feet, which only helped for a few days. As for the nails, I've noticed they are finally starting to show a little clearing on the big toe nails, nothing yet on the small ones. I'm so excited about this, I've even dreamed of them being clear! Sorry to hear about the many problems so many are facing, but I honestly feel those are very rare side effects of the medication and if you experience them, immediately stop taking it, as with any medication. As for attempting to persuade others to discontinue use of Lamisil and they could possibly benefit from a problem that has caused so much embarrassment and shame...is just not right. | M | 47 | 65 days | 11/11/2009 | 5 | Toe Fungus | I took the Rx Lamisil for 90 day. I have had great results with the toe fungus. My toes look 100% better. As for side effects I have had none. I read some of the horrors from others and i guess i am one of the lucky few to not receive any problems to date from this drug. | M | 46 | 90 days | 1/4/2010 | 5 | toe nail fungus | taste off a bit, gas, bowel movements, light headaches | 2nd time on laminal. this time i did a "PULSE" method; i took 500mg for 7 days then 3 weeks off then on again. i did this for 4 months. research a bit about the 'pulse' method. very good efficacy rates. just a bit behind the 3 months daily at 250mg a day, but a lot less problems/side effects. i think i read where laminal is at 90% effective on the 3 month deal and 80% doing the 'pulse' dosing. i had a mild case and decided to do pulsing. my nails and skin are looking good. i am at the end of the 4th pulse/month. ask your doc about this. it is not completely new, but more docs are starting to use this. i am satisfied to get rid of the fungus once again. | M | 51 | 4 months 500mg 1X day | 10/8/2013 | 5 | Nail fungus | Everything was fine... Just dont think about the pill while taking it.. Drink lots and lots of water and eat food with it... I placed the pill on the back of my tongue when i took it jic. It takes time but it worked for me :) | M | 21 | 3 months | 9/1/2014 | 5 | Toenail fungus on 4 toe nails | None | I have been taking Lamisil tablets for 6 months and continue to take it. I was told to take it until all the old toenails with fungus grew out. Will probably stop in a couple of weeks. My toenails are looking great after 15 years with bad toenails. Yay!!! :) | M | 35 | 6 months | 9/18/2015 | 5 | index finger fungus | None | took pill dally had try every over counter for the last 3 years so beg a doctor for it in 60 days i had normal nails | M | 35 | 2 months one pill | 12/9/2015 | 4 | Toe Nail Fungus | none | I'm 5 weeks into my treatment of toenail fungus, and so far NO SIDE EFFECTS AT ALL (Knocking on wood). I was so scared taking this medication because of all the stories I will hear. So far my nail is looking better. I has at the point were the fungus was causing me pain, with this is GONE!! | M | 28 | 6 weeks 250 MG 1X day | 9/27/2017 | 4 | Im not sure if it was lamisil but i had a strange cramp feel in my inner thigh to my knee. | Man i was on the fence about taking the drug for years since i like to drink and my liver enzymes were elevated. But i begged my Dr to prescribe them to me and promised to quit my drinking. I didnt. Im not encouraging anyone to do what ive done but i have no ill side effects. I have 5 pills to go and i cant believe the drastic improvement on my nails! I had thick crusty nasty toenails for years! They are starting to look pink again under my tow nails! I only had one good toe nail and it was very very difficult to conceal my nails all these years. Its actually taken 4 months and a week to finish my pills as i didnt take a pill when i wanted to go out and drink. I know i sound like a fool but i feel great and im almost done with the pills! I hope they continue to grow out nice the way they are. I didnt notice change for about 6 weeks. Very happy! Hope my liver test come back ok ill be getting it checked at the end of the summer | M | 38 | 3 months 250 | 3/30/2015 | 4 | Toenail and Fingernail issues | At first, lightheadedness, anxiety, stomach discomfort, intestinal discomfort. These seemed to subside after the first few weeks, but later in my third month of treatment the stomach and abdominal issues came back. Indigestion, stomach gas, and discomfort. Anxiety, insomnia. In the second month I got a strange skin irritation on my arm. My doctor said it was nothing and it has faded for the most part. I later developed a very itchy and unsightly rash in my groin area which I have had for a few weeks now (I am in my last week of 3 months of daily lamisil). The medicine appears to be working, as my nails are growing in clear. This is especially true of my thumbnail, which has had some sort of stubborn disfiguring issue for nearly 2 years. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to being done with this, and if my issues return I doubt very highly that I will use this medication again. It really has been a struggle. It might be better to wait and see if anything better comes out. | M | 45 | 3 months | 1/19/2010 | 4 | nail fungus | I have been using lamisil for approx 35 days now ,so far I havent experienced any side effects | I used this medicine about 7 years ago for the same problem,nail fungus,I thought it was gone forever but then about 1 yr ago it started again,first on my toe nail and then on my thumb,my past experience with lamisil was favorable,just as now I didnt have any side effects and the nails did clear up,it took about 7 mos for the nails to become fully clear | M | 39 | 35 days | 1/8/2010 |
