| 4 | nasty toe nails | Been on it for about 5 months. First few weeks slight chest pains went away by the end of the 1st month, still experience joint pain. Can't stop sleeping,I feel very lazy all day. Get lots of headaches, unexplained brusing, most recent one is on my arm, bad heartburn during the night it will wake me right up from a good sleep. Just started to get a bad metalic taste in my mouth. Just afew canker sores through-out the 5mths didn't realize that Lamisil could be the result of that. No weight loss I wish, could use afew less pounds okay maybe more than afew (LOL). Over all I'm surprisngly pleased with the results my toe nails they are almost cleared up. I was ashamed of them before they looked like "corn-nuts" if you don't know what that is google the image. It started off as one bad nail then spread overtime to all of them, they were so hard to cut because they were extermly thick instead of growing in lenght they grew in height. Holy cow they were ugly. Therefore even wit | It's not for everyone. It took me afew yrs to decide wheather to take or not! | F | 30 | 5 months | 2/20/2008 | 4 | ringworms | None that I've seen, finished course 1 week ago. | Ringworms are almost all cleared up. Was not given a liver function test, doctor said it was not needed for short treatments in otherwise healthy individuals. | M | 22 | 2 weeks | 2/17/2008 | 1 | toenail fungus | after 5 days experienced constipation. had to stop for a week because i was sceduled for a colonoscopy. resumed medicine for two more weeks with no more constipation, but started feeling like i was coming down with the flu--even though it was june! then i got the most severe lower back pain i've ever experienced in my life-i almost went to the emergency room. found this user forum online and realized it was the medicine. i stopped it immediately and felt better the next day. | i have to say that i would NEVER recommend using this drug--it isn't even prescribed in other countries. however, lo-and-behold, a month later i noticed my worst nail was growing in pink, and within six short months all my toenails were beautiful and the scales that i have had on my feet for 25 years were gone. | F | 41 | 21 days | 2/12/2008 | 1 | toenail fungus | My boyfriend is currently in the hospital in Cleveland, OH, due to using the lamisil. He went away on vacation and while he was there he was hospitalized with flu-like symptoms. They ran several test and came to the conclusion that it was his liver, he had very high liver enzymes due to taking the lamisil. | M | 40 | 3 weeks | 1/28/2008 | 3 | Toe Nail Fungus | Rash: It may be Hives. Looked it up and I have the symptoms. Don't think it's Shingles. My rash is on the back of my neck, shoulders, arms, knees, top of my feet, and hands. | If anyone has a natural remedy that has worked, please share. I stopped this medicine on my 28th day. Have a Dr's appt Monday for follow up bloodwork and will advise Dr of the rash. I can see it working but, it's not worth the side effects I'm reading. And this rash is the worse, I can't take it. Called out from work 2 days in a row because it itches like a B*tch... Please post or email me a natural remedy that has worked..... | F | 33 | 28 days | 1/25/2008 | 1 | Athletes foor | Terrible headache after first day. Chills, sweating and bad breath. I did not attribute it to the pill. Took my 2nd dose. This morning i have the same thing. Did a quick search and found this joyful website | M | 34 | 2 days | 1/25/2008 | 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 | 4 | toenail fungus | ABSOLUTELY NONE. | Was hesitant to take it (I took the generic terbinafine for 12 weeks - mucho cheaper!) because of this website but had no side affects at all. This is my last battle in long standing (at least 30 years) war against toenail fungus. I seem to see some improvement 2 weeks after my 12 week course, I'll come back in a few months and let you know if I finally won the war. Let me reiterate - NO SIDE EFFECTS AT ALL DURING THE 12 WEEK COURSE. | M | 58 | 12 weeks | 1/16/2008 | 1 | Big Toenail Infection | I experienced a very bad yeast infection, loss of appetite and sexually activity, very bad joint pain can barely walk.I hope these symptons are gone ASAP... | This product should be taken off market it makes you worse!!! | F | 43 | 19 days | 12/23/2007 | 1 | Toenail fungus | About three weeks into taking the lamisil, I noticed that I was getting a small fever blister on the left side of my mouth, but I ignored it, and thought that it would go away. It turned into a bad case of shingles all of the left side of my face, and affected my left ear, and mouth. I lost taste, and the left side of my tongue, as well as, my teeth feels funny. I still have some laceration on my tongue from where the shingle left. Also, some spots were still on my face. This has been a terrible experience, and quiet naturally, my doctor don't want to attribute this to the lamisil, but after reading what everyone else has written, I know this is where it stems from. My lip still gets numb on the left side, and I know that all of this has to do with the nervous system. If anyone experience any adverse affects like this, please let me know if you fully recovered, and how long did it take. I don't know if I should see a neurologist or not. | Just don't chance it. I know that there are people who had little or no side affects, but I think that there are more who had more adverse side effects. Also, I haven't seen the advertising on T.V. for this product lately. | M | 3 weeks | 12/19/2007 | 1 | toenail fungus | I developed shingles on the left side of my face, my tongue is still somewhat lacerated, and my teeth were affected. I believe that it affects the nervous system. This is something they don't tell you, or maybe they don't know. | Have anyone seen the lamisil commercial lately? I haven't noticed the advertisement, since I discontinue the medicine about 6 months ago. | M | 45 | 3 weeks | 12/19/2007 | 4 | toenail fungus | none | I was slightly concerned about this drug before taking it but I felt much better knowing my Podiatrist himself has been through a course of this medicine. I am 10 weeks into it, have had no side effects, and my nails are almost clear and are growing back normally. I just felt I had to counterract some of the scathing reviews of this drug. It has helped me so far. | F | 35 | 10 weeks | 12/18/2007 | 1 | toe nail fungus | The significant side affect that I experienced was total loss of taste at 3 months. | I am posting this because when I found this site when I loss my taste after a 3 month treatment, ( Sept 11) I was desparate! I was horrified that there were so many with the same side affect but no one ever posted if the taste ever resolved itself. I emailed out to several people and out of the 4 that responded, 3 said that their taste came back after 12 weeks, one responded after 6 months! I thought I would be the exception and that my taste would never return, well lo and behold after about 12 weeks my taste returned. It was a horrible 12 weeks and I was very depressed and desparate! For those of you who have this side affect, be patient. I was on a a 12 week treatment and it took 12 weeks for my taste to return! My toe nails look better. With that said, would I do it over again? Not in this life time. What it did teach me is that before I take another drug I will make sure I do a ton of research before taking it. The doctor that prescribed it to me said he had never had a pa | F | 57 | 86 days | 12/17/2007 | 1 | toenail fungus | I thought everything was going fine at first and then 6 weeks into the treatment plan, I lost my taste. Everything tastes awful if I can taste it at all. I cannot register sweet and I have a really bitter taste similar to baking soda in my mouth at all times. If I try to suck on peppermint, it's like sucking on a piece of plastic - there is no taste. Other foods taste foul - especially meat. Water is awful as well. My coffee tastes like seawater. This has been very distressing. I was brushed off by my doctor, the pharmacist had no clue, and even the drug manufacturer offered no help. I've been struggling with this for three weeks now and sure would like to know that it's temporary! I do not recommend this medicine. It's definitely NOT worth it! I hope and pray that there is no permanent damage! | F | 48 | 6 weeks | 12/17/2007 | 1 | Toenail fungus | Developed a mild cold after afew days, but who knows if that was related. Extremely dehydrated and very fatigued, unlike anything I have felt before - yet I could not sleep for more than three hours. Felt anxiety/depression after about four or so days, with no real reason why. There was absolutely no documentation about the drug in the packaging, which is very bad. Most of my side effects had cleared several days after discontinuing use of the drug. | Stick with your ailment - after reading 250+ comments which are all generally the same, there is clearly a problem with this drug. It's not worth the risk of liver damage and losing taste sensations...not to mention the ridiculously high price. | M | 32 | 6 days | 12/11/2007 | 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 | 1 | Toenail Fungus | I had stomach pain almost every day for the 3 weeks that I took it. I also experienced paranoia and felt like I was in a contant mental fog. I have not slept a full nights' sleep since starting it either. I felt my heart racing and seemed to lose part of my appetite. I started to develop a metal taste in my mouth around week three. After logging on to this site I decided to stop taking it. Toenail fungus is not worth any of these side effects and now I am wondering how to cleanse my body of this drug. I've been off of it now for a week and I'm still having difficulty sleeping, but the other side effects are waning. I am wondering if my nervous system has been affected or damaged in any way. There has to be a better (and natural) cure for toenail fungus! Take this medication at your own risk!!! | Would not recommend - steer clear of this dangerous drug. | F | 40 | 3 weeks | 11/23/2007 | 1 | Tinea Capitis | scalp peeling (looked like a chemical burn); hair loss; severe tiredness, but with insomnia; excessive thirst; joint pain in hands, knees, ankles and right shoulder - using walker to get around; rash on arm - skin discolored; blisters on both heels; swelling in hands, knees and ankles. | Just learned that this drug was approved for use in children 4 and older for tinea capitis. We must stop them! Babies will not be able to describe what is wrong with them and if they experience the joint pain, one hug from mom will cause severe pain. | F | 38 | 30 days | 11/18/2007 | 1 | toe nail fungus | After 3 days of treatment(250mg daily), I felt very dizzy with blurred vision, extremely fatigue, depressed, no energy at all; Metalic taste in mouth, anorexia-No appetite at all...Had to quit the treatment! This is not for me...I have off it for 3 days now, those symptoms are getting better but not totally go away yet. Since the nail fungus might come back, I would rather go for some other method with fewer serious side effects, if they are not lethal! | F | 37 | 3 days | 11/12/2007 | 1 | Toe Nail fungus | Total loss of taste after 2 months | Do not take the chance-it is the worst thing in the world to lose your sense of taste. EVERYTHING either tastes bad or has no taste-including water!! Is there anyone who has regained taste?? This is scary. | F | 63 | 70 days | 11/10/2007 |
