A member asked:
I'm worried about the side effects from taking lamisil (terbinafine) for skin fungus. how can i avoid them?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
2 weeks treatment: The usual treatment for skin fungal infection with Lamisil (terbinafine) is 2 weeks. Unless you are at a high risk for complications from other comorbidities, the use of Lamisil (terbinafine) for 2 weeks is very safe. However, there are some very effective topical medications that may get the job done without the pills.
