How Long Do I Need To Take Lamisil For Toenail Fungus?
Hi, can I answer your health question? Please type your question here... Hi . Im taking lamisil tablets for 5 months now. With no side effects. Liver enzymes are fine. My toenails are looking great. But there is still a little left. Not fully grown out. How long do I have to take this pill for?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Usually, Lamisil is used for longer periods if toenail fungus is not fully recovered. As long as liver enzymes are fine, Lamisil can be used for 6 months or longer than 2 weeks after toenail is fully healed. Do not forget to use anti-fungal nail lacquer locally.
Hope this answers your query. If any other concern, do not hesitate to write me back.
