A member asked:
Do all oral fungal pills cause liver damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antifungals.: Oral anti-fungal medications are associated with liver toxicity, but it only becomes relevant after thirty days of daily use. Once you've taken the medication for thirty days,you'll need monthly liver function blood testing to make sure you're not developing toxicity.
