| 3 | Jock Itch | Thirst. Initially very groggy and tired yet anxious. Side effects began to subside about 5 days into it though | Fungus going away, but I was also using a cream. For the past 2 years creams on their own didn't eliminate thefungus. The itch would seem to go away but come back shortly thereafter. This treament seems to be working. I would way rather not take it but when a cheesegrater is your only other option to cure the itch, then sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. | M | 31 | 2 weeks | 6/2/2007 | 3 | Toe fungus | Complete loss of taste and smell within a few weeks. Stopped taking drug after 60 days and it took another 60 days to get most of my taste senses back. Now, almost a year after taking the drug, I have constant excess saliva in my mouth that I fear is another long term side-effect. Has anyone else had this long term problem? | Yes, the toe fungus has cleared, but I agree with others who question...is it worth it? Losing your sense of taste and smell is a very depressing state. | M | 48 | 60 days | 1/5/2009 | 3 | toe nail fungus | This stuff makes you dizzy.Light headed, | I have had toe nail fungus for over 5 years. I was feed up with all the home treatments that did not work. So i am on this crappy drug. It does seem to be working.My toes are growing in pink over half way however I am dizzy and faint even while i type this comment. I have 18 days left and I am trying to stick it out because there really is nothing else that works.I work fo myself and need to be a sharp self starter to keep things on track.I feel the mental difference the drug makes.Its powerful stuff.If my toenail fungus is cured it will be worth it.My liver function tests are all normal.I am dizzy to the point of almost feeling drunk.I do not use any alcohol or other drugs of any type. God bless you all and good luck getting rid of the fungus | M | 39 | 57 days | 3/26/2009 | 3 | toenail fungus | no taste | Three years ago I noticed that all food tasted bad. The only thing I could think of was that I was taking lamasil. I called my doctor and he was confused and not aware that it was a side effect. I quit taking lamasil. I am a pharmaceutical sales rep so I knew to look at the side effects and saw 3%. Three weeks ago I went to a new md because I moved and was fed up with my yellow toenails and I told her of my losing taste with my last trial with lamasil....again she said that she had never heard that this was indeed a side effect so I thought that perhaps Lamasil was not the cause of my previous loss of taste. Well I was wrong and 4 days ago lost about 80% of taste...I am actually eating papa johns pizza with the butter sauce right now hoping that I would at least taste a part of the rich taste...it tastes like crap. I dont know if I can go another 2 1/2 months of this but on the other hand I dont want yellow nails so i am going to try and stick it out. But the good news is that I can tell you that you will get the taste back...I dont remember it taking that long...probably about a week after I discontinued treatment. Wow...the simple things we take for granted. My father is taking it right now as well and he tastes everything. Everyone acts differently to all medications...we are just the unlucky 3% :-( Good Luck!!!! | M | 31 | 20 days | 3/30/2009 | 3 | Toenail Fungus | Extreme fatigue, pale stools, abdominal pain, indigestion, taste disturbance. | My bloodwork was fine while taking this medicine, however the side effects did indicate possible liver problems so I stopped taking the drug anyway. It's a shame too because it was really starting to work, but I won't risk destroying my liver over it. | M | 45 | 30 days | 8/21/2008 | 3 | no known side effect at the time took it over a year fungus cleared up after 10 or 11 months around year 2000 fungus comming back again in 2008 | now in 2008 I have liver cancer may be a connection | M | 15 months | 8/4/2008 | 3 | Toenail Fungus, both feet | Headaches, Kidney Inflammation, metallic taste, pale stool | I noticed the headaches and pale stool within a week or two of starting generic lamisil. However the headaches were easily manageable with painkillers, and the pale stool simply had my doctor order blood tests. After a month or so I noticed the metallic taste and some abdominal pain that would subside a few hours after taking a pill. In the final two weeks of a three month course of treatment, the abdominal pain got worse and I was forced to stop taking any doses. I am awaiting the results of new blood tests on my kidney function. In the third month I could see the start of clearer nails growing in. I am hopeful that the nail will continue to grow this way now that I have stopped taking lamisil. | M | 27 | 75 days | 6/2/2008 | 3 | Toe Nail Fungus | Been taking Lamisil Generic for 4 months with no side effects. I have one more refill for a 5th month. Slowly my left big toe nail is coming out clear. | M | 29 | 106 days | 4/16/2009 | 3 | toenail fungus | After eating I would get hot and start sweating. Nausea followed by vomiting happened at least twice a week. I am just about to start my 3rd and last month. I am going to tough it out, but it really sucks feeling like this | M | 29 | 60 days | 8/20/2009 | 3 | toenail fungus | the cream made my skin EXTREMELY sensitive and Itchy. Switched to tabs which i barely get a metal taste in my mouth so far (only 3 days with the tabs) | so yeah the cream, and I used alot all over my feet and nails, made me itsch and itch like crazy. I didnt realize this could possible happen. As it turned out I went to the dr to get the RX tab so realizing the itching was from the cream (1%) that i just started to take, and the itching/sensitivity has gone away. Will let you know about the generic tabs. | M | 40 | 3 days | 7/5/2009 | 3 | left thumbnail fungal infection | I'm at week 7 of 250mg once a day. First 30 days everything was fine, then I started with welts on my chest, shoulders, arms, legs and back. The medicine seems to be killing the fungus, but the rash is really itchy. My GP assures me the rash isn't from the anti-fungal, but I know better. Before taking the drug my left thumb was in bad shape - cracking and bleeding from the slightest bump, ugly, black raised nail with a foul odor. I'm going to see a dermatologist to see what I can do about this problem. I hate taking this drug, but there is no other way to get under the nail and attack this horrible fungus. My thumb is much better and now it looks like if I can continue the meds it will kill the fungus. This isn't a cosmetic problem,the fungal infection was really nasty. I have always been a "health nut" and think my superior diet and avoidance of alcohol, drugs, chemicals and crappy food has helped me to avoid many of the side effects other have written about here. Th | M | 50 | 45 days | 4/20/2009 | 3 | Toe nail Fungus | I am within the last 2 weeks of my 3 month perscription. A week and a half ago I totally lost my appitite, have a VERY dry mouth... even after taking a drink of water I am very thristy again. I try to eat everyday but can't eat things that are dry because they become hard to swallow because of the lack of saliva. Also have had loose stool, with some yellow watery discharge, ben VERY anxious... I have alreay lost 10 pound and I am skinny to begin with. I went to the DR and all my liver functions and blood tests came back good. Could this possiably be caused by the Lamisil. Please e-mail me with suggestions | On a plus note I am noticing a diffence with the my to nails but I have quit taking it for the last 2 weeks I had left | M | 30 | 2.5 months | 6/25/2009 | 3 | fingernail & toenail fungus | Horrible taste in my mouth,do not want to eat anything | Using this drug for 8 weeks, showing much improvement in fingernails only.I am losing weight due to inability to stand the taste of anything(including water). I will stick out the remaining 4 weeks, but will never use this drug again,fungus or not. | M | 62 | 8 weeks | 9/30/2009 | 2 | Toenail fungus | I've gotta stop taking this drug, I just feel grim. I'm not usually a quitter but I can't hit the gym hard at all and I have a pain in my upper gut that won't go away. I'll live with the funky toenails for the time being... | Probably works if you're up for the challenge | M | 28 | 10 days 250 1X day | 9/2/2014 | 2 | Fungal Toe Nails | At week 4, complete loss of taste. At week 7, immune system problems which I believe led to Shingles. | This cured my toe nails, but at a high price. I am a sports fanatic (gym, run swim 5 times per week) in my 30s. This is an effective treatment, but the doctors should warn people to stop taking it at the first sign of adverse effects. | M | 34 | 16 weeks 250mg 1X day | 6/11/2015 | 2 | Fingernail Onychomycosis | First week you feel weird normal because you are adding a toxic substance into your body! but nothing for now...4 weeks to go... sometimes liver area feels weird! | Guys please listen to me! I am a 30 year old healthy male, happens I hurt one finger nail at gym, and had onychomycosis for about 4 years.. mine is different , it gets infected from the top of the nail, the top stays infected till the new nail grows, but has not been growing to it's normal length but Lamisil after 8 weeks is not helping it got reinfected but seems more controlled so HOPEFULLY it will work after my treatment because they say terbinafin accumulates in nails... also taking the cream at night... HOPE it works!!! just losing hope!!!!!! | M | 30 | 8 weeks 250 1X day | 3/27/2017 | 2 | Toenail fungus | Chronic diarrhea | Developed chronic diarrhea about 4 weeks in. My one month labs came back normal so I tried sticking it out because I want to get rid of the funky toe and more importantly kill off what I believe is Candida overgrowth. I see some evidence of clear nail growth, but 10-12 sessions on the toilet just isn't worth it. If you've been diagnosed with any digestive disorders (IBS, IBD, SIBO), beware. | M | 57 | 6 weeks | 3/25/2017 | 2 | fungal nail infection | writing this on behalf of my boyfriend he has been taking it for 6 weeks, he is tired all the time, lack of sex drive, flu and cold symptoms he aches all over, taste buds none existant, no appetite, after reading all these i will tell him to stop taking | M | 34 | 6 weeks | 1/1/2009 | 2 | NAil Fungus | Rash | M | 27 | 2 days | 9/22/2004 | 2 | toenail fungus | Developed shingles within one week of stopping medication. Metalic taste. | Nails appear to be fungus free. | M | 43 | 90 days | 5/27/2007 |
