User Reviews for Lamisil oral

I don't know whether i had side effects from lamisil because i was taking other meds that side effects were constipation and nausea so i can't pinpoint it. Anyway I have just finished by 90 day regimen and I have to say my toenails are beautiful. They were very dark all of my toes on both feet. There is still a little dark around the edge of a couple of the toes, so I do have a extra bottle so I am going to keep taking them for another 30 days.

I am now into my 3rd month on this med. I swore myself off any type of liquor during the time I am on this medication, so that I could avoid ill effects to my liver. I have been taking monthly blood tests, just to keep on top of it. So far, my feet seem much softer and my nails are now pink in color. The one side effect that I have noticed began in the 2nd half of the second month that I was taking the med. My taste is skewed. Our reverse osmosis water even had a funny taste! Until I figured out that it was a result of the med, I had the repairmen replace our filter! I can't taste sweet, salty or spicy! Foods taste very bland to me! So maybe you could say a good side effect of this drug is mild weight loss!!! Hopefully, this will not be a permanent side effect! Anyone out there have this effect? Hopefully, in about 3 weeks when I am done with the treatment, I will have my taste restored, and shortly thereafter have the beautiful toenails I so desire!Read More Read Less

I'v been taking this med. for 2 wks I havent seen any changes yet. but, we'll see what happens.

doctor said that it is fungal under my big toe nail. I took the pills for four days, the headaches were bad so I stoped the meds.It has been five days now that I stoped the meds. but the headaches never stop, going for a cat scan soon.

I am 6 weeks in to it and have no side effects at all. I see some improvement but an anxious to see the final results.

I had no problems with this drug. I felt normal and my toe nails look great. I was nervous at first but all went well.

Had very bad reactions to this medicine. Started with mild headache. After week 4 problem increased to nauesa and stomache pains. After week 5 problems increased to extreme itching all over, very dark urine, and jundice in skin and eyes. Stopped using after week 5. Blood test before using drug showed completely normal liver function. Blood test after week 5 showed problems with liver function. I am a healthy person and was not on any other medication at the time. Be very careful with this medicine. If you choose to use it be sure to get frequent blood tests to test the liver function.

I became very sick during the short ten days I took the drug. I had my liver checked before starting the drug. I was extremely nauseated and constipated while taking the drug. The eighth day I threw up violently and nightly leg aches began. I also had bad smelling perspiration. Careful when taking this drug.

Lamisil is a terrible drug. It works by storing itself in EVERY SINGLE FAT CELL of your body. Because of this Lamisil takes 6-7 months to deplete itself from your body, and then it will take another 6-7 months for your body to re-adjust itself back to normal from any side effects you may be experiencing. I know this because 6-7 days into taking this drug i got serverly constipated for 2 weeks and then it was terrible diarrhea for months afterwords. This information was provided to me from lab chemists for the state of new york and from people who have taken the drug. Everyone who has had a reaction to this drug, just hang tight. It will go away!Read More Read Less

the fungal disease of the nail has cleared up but I have gotten red blotches over my arms, legs and face. are these the side effects of this drug?

I am having excellent results. Just to help prevent any liver problems I started taking Milk Thistle and so far so good. I have been taking it for 8 weeks.

I took lamisil a few years ago, I had very bad fungus in my toenails and the bottom of my feet were so dry that they would crack and bleed. I took the meds for three months and the bottom of my feet became soft and smooth before I even stopped taking it. After stopping the meds my toenails grew out and now two years later my feet and toenails are pretty much perfect! (No side affects whatsoever!) Worked great for me.

I am taking the second 30 day supply and the rash is starting to fade. It could be months before gone the dr. tells me hope it doesn't effect liver though.

I have used the 90-day Lamisil regimen on three occasions in the last ten years with no significant side effects. Each time the fungus cleared up nicely within six months, but always returned about a year later. I am now searching for a more effective long term cure.

i have been taking the generic brand for about 5 weeks. the affected nail is much improved! i have had some nasseau; but none of the other symptoms. i'm very pleased with progress so far. waiting for nail to grow out normally. not sure if i'm supposed to take with food, but i do.

I got very sick useing, Terinafine have a realy bad tase in my mouth and not able to eat any food or drink fluids , if i try i am sick I stoped taking the medication a month ago and am still not able to eat, i went to the emergency and was told it was a side efect, I have since been to a ENT docter he was not able to help me i am having a MRI on december the 24 and have a apointment with aneuroligist, i have lost 20 lbs have dizzy spells and fall down, all so pass out, no one seems to be able to help me and I get sicker every day, please tell me if you know anything that will help me. I am not able to drive my car or anything, my whole life has change since I took this medication. Debra Read More Read Less

After treatment with topical antifungals, which did not work....I have been on lamasil for 6 weeks and have had relatively good results. However I have had an elevated AST,(liver enzyme) and very severe constipation. I still have rash symptoms and wonder how long I will need to use this medication. I also am on Crestor which also can cause liver damage, so I am reluctant to continue using the lamasil. DO NOT USE ALCOHOL WHILE TAKING THESE MEDS.

I'm not sure if it's working, only on it for abt 6 weeks. TASTE BUDS DEAD, BUT I HAVE THIS AWFUL AMMONIA SMELL THAT IS THE ONLY SCENT I SMELL! PLEASE SHARE~ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS? Getting blood retested today to try to find cause. I think I'm getting off of it~the smell is so bad it's depressing!

I took the generic one time and within 6 hours woke up overwhelmed with nausea and a bad headache. I called my Dr and he said to stop the treatment immediately. It took almost 24 hours to get somewhat back to normal -- this is now the day after and I still feel a little out of it but much better. I'm sad about my toenail -- it is sometimes painful and always terrible to look at, but I'll live with it. I had all the preliminary blood work done (liver enzymes) and an expensive Rx co-pay, but it's just not worth it.Read More Read Less
