Patient 01: After three weeks a spot showed up. At first I thought I had ringworm and did not associate the red mark on the middle of my chest with the medicine. However, after two days of treating it as if it was ringworm, the rash continued to grow and showed up in a dozen more locations. I called the doctor who had me stop taking the Lamisil and said I was having an allergic reaction. Now it is two weeks later, the rash is all over my chest, back and arms and has not gotten any better. I called again and they said it may take two to three weeks to go away, but I’m calling again to get an appointment and see if a shot of some sort is needed. What really ticks me off is it was working and my toe nail was starting to look better. But knowing what I know now, I would NOT do this again.
Patient 02: My ringworm has not returned; the toenail fungus is retreating. I also took the lamisil cream (before the 90-day pill regimen) for my ringworm which invariably made it go away in about a week. My doctor recommended that I take the Lamisil twice daily for the first week of the month, then off of it for three weeks then start it again (continuing this cycle for six months). He said that this method works just as well but is not as rough on the liver. No problems for the first few days but have noticed some pretty bad cramping in my legs for two days. Luckily I only have one day of pills left this month….and then I get three week a break. I wouldn’t take this drug. I was hesitant before even trying it because of what I had read about it, but my doctor said it would be ok. After this round of steroids, the doc is going to try diflucan for me. By the way – I got this silly toe fungus because of wearing sneakers on moving day that rubbed against my poor big toes! Frustrating!
Patient 03: I have had toe nail fungus for years and finally decided to take the only medication my doctor said would work. I have only been on it one week but the coughing especially in the evening and at night is very annoying. After reading this site I am also concerned about other problems developing so am stopping this medication at this time. I may try it again later on to see if these problems I’ve experienced happen again. If they do I’ll quit and will just have to live with toe nail fungus until a better form of treatment becomes available. Some people may be fortunate enough to be able to tolerate this horrrible medicine, but its not worth the risk.
