| 2 | Toe Nail Fungus | Taste disturbance, things tasting different and unusual (and not good). Like others, I did my own research and finally discovered why I had the disturbance. Discussed it with the Doctor and agreed to stop taking Lamisil. | After about 9 months, I still have not recovered my true sense of taste. It certainly is much better than it was when I stopped taking the medication but is noticeably not back to where it was. No other side effects were experienced. I would not have been concerned with the taste loss, if it came back shortly after discontinuing the drug use. | M | 55 | 7 weeks | 4/23/2007 | 2 | toenail fungus | Loss of taste (primarily sweet) after 6 weeks of use | I discontinued the product after realizing that the change in taste was a direct result of the medicine. I stopped 11 weeks ago and still have no sweet taste sensation. My right big toenail is looking healthier and may eventually get better as it grows out. I am seeing a neurologist to see if this taste loss condition is reversible. If not, this is a terrible medication! | M | 49 | 7 weeks | 3/26/2007 | 2 | toenail fungus | loss of taste | I've heard the normally recovery period for taste loss is 4 to 6 weeks. Also, that increasing your level of | M | 37 | 5 weeks | 9/20/2004 | 2 | tonail fungus | some stomach pain after a month. Not bad, but doc suggested I stop taking it. Pain seemed to go away. Haven't resumed. | Starting seeing some improvement in my nail at the time I quit. | M | 45 | 30 days | 3/23/2004 | 2 | toenail funguy | experiencing loss of taste and a strange feeling on my tongue | I should have done more research before agreeing to start this treatment.Possible future side effects are chilling. | M | 48 | 41 days | 5/5/2004 | 2 | big toenail infection | Scared at what I'm hearing! After looking at other medicines, I found they have similar complaints. What are the statistics on liver/kidney problems caused by the drug? Are they rare? | M | 36 | 2 weeks | 2/2/2006 | 2 | For toenail fungus | Upset stomach, diarrhea, flatulence. Onychomycosis was only cleared up fully in one toenail. 1.5-2 years later, diagnosed with Celiac Disease (stomach reaction to gluten, found a lot in wheat products). Side effects of Celiac Disease: poor digestion, diarrhea, flatulence, severe rash. | For the price of this medication, I expected the fungus would be cleared up in both toes. Since starting Lamisil, I have continued the upset stomach and diarrhea side effects and have been diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Can't make 100% correlation but timing and symptoms are all too similar. | M | 23 | 3 months | 4/9/2006 | 2 | Toe Nail Fungus | Loss of taste, blurred vision, slight bloating. I have stopped taking this after my 3 month prescription was nearly through. I am still waiting for my full taste capability to return to normal. Very difficult drug for the body to handle. The claim of a 2.8% rate of taste loss appears bogus and should be investigated by the FDA immediately. | I am apparently cured, but my advice would be; A. Find an alternative method of treating the fungus including applying Vicks Vapo Rub or Menthol based medicine to the nails early when you first notice a possible fungus; B. Monitor liver functions closely if you do decide to take this drug. C. Again, if you decide to take this drug and are even a moderate drinker; stop intake of any alcoholic beverages for the length of the prescription+. Taking this drug is a heck of a price to pay physically and financially for the ability to wear sandles without imbarrasment. | M | 43 | 85 days | 6/11/2006 | 2 | toe nail fungus | Slight constipation and itching for the first 60 days. Took 3 days off after consulting with doctor. Itching subsided somewhat so starting taking again for a week. Itching on back and chest returned worse, along with lower back pain which I suspect is related to the pill since it is right where red tender skin patches are. | It appears to be clearing up the fungus but I'm stopping because I think my body is giving me enough of a warning. | M | 50 | 70 days 250 1X day | 6/23/2010 | 1 | toenail fungus | Loss of tatse, especially sweets and salty foods. Tounge feels like it was burned. Pain in groind area. | It seems as though thiese side affects are more common than advertised. | M | 43 | 90 days 250mg 1X day | 7/13/2010 | 1 | Athletes Foot and Toenail Fungus | Anxiety, upset stomach, diarrhea | I did research before taking this pill and after the rash on my toe (skin around nail) was not getting better, I decided to suck it up and just go for it. After terrible side effects of major upset stomach and diarrhea (which leads to dehydration), I stopped taking the pill. Now, 6 days after stopping pill, am still feeling diarrhea and an upset stomach. Hope it goes away. | M | 34 | 6 days 1X day | 7/21/2010 | 1 | fungal infection in one toe | Loss of taste | I have already posted here with a tip to help people eat who have lost their taste but I wanted to update and give some more hope. I am sure my taste is returning, by no means is it back to normal yet but I am now able to eat normally but with just less enjoyment. Citrus foods still taste horrible but on the whole I can detect flavours just not as strongly as I once could. I stopped treatment 25 days ago. I panicked at first but I feel quietly confident it should be fine eventually. good luck | M | 35 | 35 days | 1/27/2010 | 1 | fungus - white flakey toenails | spotty red rashes on groin and armpits. odd spelling urine. | M | 45 | 10 days | 1/31/2010 | 1 | Fungal infection in one toe | Extreme Itching and kidney problems. Worst though, is that it drastically reduced my white blood cell (WBC) count. My count has not returned within the WBC Reference Range of (4.8-10.8 K/uL) since taking Lamisil. Totally mad at my doctor for not telling me about the side effects. | Avoid this drug at ALL cost. Your immune system isn't worth the risk. You toe will be just fine - simply file it down. | M | 37 | 14 days 250 MG 1X day | 4/4/2011 | 1 | Toe Nail Fungus | Metallic taste in the mouth, Upset Stomach, Odd smelling stool, Severe Rash/Hives (appeared 30 days after taking it) | The metallic and stomach issues were tolerable. The rash however, was not. It took about one week for the rash to wear off after I was instructed to stop taking this drug. | M | 24 | 30 days 30 MG 1X day | 11/13/2010 | 1 | Toenail fungus | Hives rash everywhere | Please dont take this product | M | 29 | 30 days 250mg 1X day | 11/16/2010 | 1 | Toe Nail Fungus | Terrible stomach ache, loss of taste, metallic taste, headaches, inability to exercise, body pains throughout. I am afraid of what this drug has done to my body and am seeing Dr. tomorrow to complain about side effects. I am shocked it is even on the market. Toe nail polish, vinegar/water treatments, and topical creams for now on. THIS STUFF IS DANGEROUS!!! | I feel like the FDA should pull this drug. It is horrible for people and not worth taking. | M | 36 | 45 days 250 MG 1X day | 11/18/2010 | 1 | foot fungus | Once I was given the prescription for Lamisil, I went on internet and found this site and after reading all the terrible side effects I decided not to use it. I ended up soaking my feet in 16 oz of vinegar along with at least 25 oz of water every day for 6 months and my feet are like brand new. Soaking your feet in Vinegar and water will work for anybody and when I say anybody I mean anybody. If you are using Lamisil, STOP using it immediately the side effects are not worth it. Soak your feet in VINEGAR/WATER!!!!!! it will work. If you want to Thank me, thank me on this bulletin board, I will not leave my e-mail,thank you. | The reason I feel for you folks is because people don't understand they think you're crazy or something else is wrong, well I had side effects from another antibiotic drug that kept me hostage for 1 1/2 months. So I know your pain (nausea,loss appetite, loss 15 pounds, dehydration, loss of energy, blurred vision, metallic mouth, peed a river, tired all day, dizzy at times, lil bit of diarrhea )of uncertainty (not knowing how long the side drug effects will last and when will it wear off) I had took 500mg of an antibiotic 4 times a day for 2 and 1/2 days. Total of 5000 mg was in my system over a 2 and a 1/2 days. 10 capsules out of 30. It took 40 days after I took my last capsule for the side effects to finally wear off thanks to drinking at least 2-3 gallons of water a day and pissing the nasty medicine out. It was pure hell, I thought (side effects) would last forever! Blurred vision went back to 85% normal after 35 days. If I had took the whole course I would probably be DOA. | M | 45 | 90 days forgot 1X day | 9/30/2010 | 1 | jock itch | metallic taste in my mouth and occasional obdominal pain. It made me do a website seach until I found something that would help me find out what was going on. I thought I had thrush(after reading about it) thought it was from drinking red wine, stress, I looked everywhere. When I saw all these similar statements, I felt like I found out what is wrong with me. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LAMISIL MUST READ THESE AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. IF I LOSE MY TASTE FOR LIFE OVER THIS, I WILL SLAP THE TASTE OUT OF THEIR MOUTH AND PUMP IN A FRESH NEW ONE FOR THEM...JOCK ITCH STYLE! | M | 30 days | 3/3/2006 | 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 |
