 4  Fungus under 2 toenails Partial loss of taste. I took Lamisil for 60 days about 8 years ago for toenail fungus and it cured me with NO side effects. The fungus recently returned and after 21 days on Lamisil I've lost about 50% of my sense of taste. No noticable change in the fungus yet....it takes a while. I'll try to hang in there for another month of the Lamisil. M 61 30 days

 4  Toenail infection Slight loss of taste. Slight hair loss. Toenail fungal infection 16 years. Tried most alternative treatments without success. After 3 months treatment, and counting, nail looking much improved for 1st time, and wearing sandalls again. As terbinafine potentially toxic to liver, I cut out all additional liver stressors, such as coffee, alcohol. I also went on total sugar free, gluten free diet, which I believe has improved my total health, and minimised the side effects of terbinafine. Yes, terbinafine is toxic, but so is long term exposure to fungus (which is NOT only on your toes.)There are many medications pre-disposing one to fungal development, many of which I unfortunately had in the past.I hope my lifestyle change can prevent a re-occurance. Time will tell, but very pleased to be on terbinafine. M 49 3 months

 3  Toe Nail Fungus Withing days I had constant headaches that felt like a hangover (dehydration pressure in the head). After a few weeks, I noticed my hair falling out in the shower. I have never had any prior hair loss. I also noticed joint pain, in elbows knees and ankles. For me, I don't think it was worth it. I could not exercise for 3 months while taking it. Just mild exercise gave me a pounding headache. I felt tired an hung over all the time, and became irritable and snapped at people when my head hurt. I also had unusual sharp pains in my ankles and knees and elbows at times. After 90 days, my big toe was about 70% free of the white fungus that had completely covered it before I started. Had it not been working I would have stopped taking it, but I hung in there. If the toe fungus comes back I will NOT take Terbinafine(Lamisil) again. I will see a foot doctor about removing my toe nail before I suffer like that again. M 39 90 days

 3  Toenail Fungus on 8 of 10 None. Although, I am itching like crazy after eating a bunch of chocolate. I just started Lamisil 10 days ago and so far have experienced none of the side effects others have complained of. I was skeptical at first because of the overwhelming number of negative reviews and side effects. When my podiatrist prescribed it, I was really nervous to start taking it. Having read all of the side effects of this, it reminds me of the side effects of candida/yeast die off. My youngest child is autistic and very often autistic children have an overgrowth of candida and undergo antifungal treatments to rid their bodies of this overgrowth. The side effects are nearly identical to that die off. They can make you pretty miserable. They can be so severe sometimes that you wouldn't recognize your own child due to the moodiness and irritability. Aside from being extremely itchy tonight after I ate too much Valentine's chocolate, I have had none of the side effects. It may be too early for me as I am only 10 days into treatment. I have actually had more energy and felt pretty good. I'm curious to see what the following weeks will bring. I saw another poster say not to let the pill touch your tongue. I think I will give that a try and see if helps with the taste issue. M 35 10 days

 3  fungus in all toenails Have had chronic toenail fungus in all toenails since I was 14 that started with sports/injuries of stubbing toes or ripping nails off and always grew back ingrown ,thick and mis-formed ...... at 34 I have other digestive problems but from what I could tell I had NO side effects from Lamisil my left foot has completly cleared of the fungus excluding the big toe which is cleared up but grow's slowly so not sure how it will look when it grows out it may still be mis-shaped but without the dry,yellowed cracked look...................... now for some reason I had NO improvement to the right foot.... this seams odd to me, why would that be?

 3  Finger nail Muscle aches and tingling and numbness. I need to be on this medication for 5 more weeks but will have to discontinue againsts my doctors request to continue. I've been tingling for 8 days (24/7) and muscle aches for 5 days. I made an appointment to see my doctor and my blood panel was within normal limits. Went to acupuncturist and he said poor circulation. I work out 3 days a week (2 days swimming) and eat right. No other major changes in lifestyle and couldn't figure out why my body feels like this.

 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

 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

 3  Toe nail fungus Got taste loss after about 3 weeks. Taste loss lasted for almost a month, but did come back. I stopped taking medicine immediately upon taste loss. Toe nail fungis did go away though, and like I said, taste is back. Be careful, are pretty toes worth liver damage and taste loss? In retrospect I probably would not have taken it... but I didn't get any permanent problems from it. M 30 4 weeks

 3  Chronic (20 years) athletes foot Noticed a slight nausea while taking Lamisil for 1 month - 250 tablet each day. Four months after finishing had a liver function test. High Bilirubin, High ALT, High GGT in each of three Liver functuion tests one month apart. Don't know if the two are related. Seven months after completing course, Lamisil has certainly cured the athlete's foot. But I'm not sure if the cost has been a damaged liver. Final diagnosis on the liver has not been made.

 3  toenail fungus moderate loss of taste after 10 weeks of taking the medication I hadn't heard of this side effect until I researched it on the web. I was surprised to read all the comments about taste loss. The toenails seem to be clearing up. But I can't decide whether to discontinue the medication. I am somewhat relieved to have discovered the reason for the taste loss. I wanted to lose a few pounds and I did, but I have lost enough. M 65 10 weeks

 3  Foot Fungus Stomach Pain and Weight Gain I have not been on Lasisil long enough to know whether or not it is working on the fungus; I have, however, experienced severe stomach pain. The only way to subside the pain is to fill my stomach with food, hence the weight gain. I'm not sure what I think of Lamisil yet. We'll see if I can take it for the entire 90 days. M 28 20 days

 3  Toe fungus No side effects. Through a micommunication with my doctor, I've been taking Lamisil for 5 months straight (2 months longer than apparently I was supposed to). My toe fungus is progressivly clearing up, but I am concerned about how long I've been taking it and potential long-term effects. M 36 5 months

 3  Toe Fungus Kidney Pain, followed by nausea and mid-section discomfort and bloating. Seemed to work amazingly well on the nail but a blood test showed a elevated bilirubin level a week after discontinuing the drug. It was working so well I am disappointed to have to quit using it but I guess a fixed toe but broken kidneys and/or liver is a problem. M 40 3 weeks

 3  toe fungus Severe headaches---feels like a sinus problem, around my nose and the back of my ears--- but tylenol and sudafed don't seem to make it better. The headaches seem to go away if I skip a day and take it every other day, but then they return after a few days of regular dose. I developed an itchy rash on my legs after sun exposure, but thought that it was due to a drug interaction, since I was on an antibiotic at that time as well. Nails are already starting to look better, but I am not sure that it is worth it. Maybe I should quit before I lose my sense of taste as well. M 46 29 days

 3  Toenail fungus No side effects Toenails cleared up normally, however the problems came back in less than a year. Reading these side-effects has convinved me not to try using it again. I was probably just lucky. M 22 3 months
