Use Lamisil to fight nail fungus. Lamasil goes to the source.

When taking Lamasil Tablets, the active ingredient, terbinafine, goes to the infected area under the toenail or fingernail. Because terbinafine accumulates and remains in the area of the nail that is growing, it can continue to work for months even after your prescription is finished, allowing the nail to heal over a period of time.

Patients take one 250 mg tablet per day (it may be taken with or without food). You should follow your doctor's advice on how to take Lamisil Tablets. Be sure to take the complete course of your medicine. For toenail infections, treatment time is 12 weeks. For fingernail infections, treatment time is 6 weeks. It is important to note that the complete healing process often takes at least 10 to 12 months for toenails and 4 months for fingernails. This is due to the length of time it takes for the new nails to grow in.

Onychomycosis is a fungal type of infection that resides under your fingernails or toenails. Because the fungus infects the area underneath the nail and in the place where the nail forms, it can be very stubborn and difficult to cure. The infection may cause some or all of the following problems: the nail can turn colors like white, yellow or brown, and become thickened and brittle. Additionally, it may be painful for some people.

Lamasil Tablets should not be taken by anyone allergic to any of its ingredients. You should be aware of these warnings and precautions when taking Lamisil Tablets:

As with all medications, you should discuss any side effects you experience with your doctor or healthcare professional.

Rare instances of serious liver problems or skin reactions have been reported in patients using Lamisil Tablets. In such cases, treatment with Lamisil Tablets should be discontinued. Your doctor may ask you to undergo tests before and during treatment with Lamisil Tablets.
