Lamisil (generic name: terbinafine; brand names include: Tebina / Terbisil / Zabel) offers effective treatment for mild to severe nail fungus infection (including jock itch, athlete's foot and ringworm): high cure rates with low relapse, an established safety record, and convenient once-a-day dosing.

Lamisil is one of the most prescribed treatment for nail fungus infection worldwide. Since 1996, healthcare professionals have prescribed Lamisil to more than 17 million people in the U.S.

Lamisil tablets are an FDA-approved pill.

Lamisil works by stopping the growth of fungi. Unlike surface treatments that you may have tried, Lamisil works through the bloodstream to target the infection where it lives, deep under the nail. When you take Lamisil, the active ingredient, terbinafine, travels 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 naturally over a period of time.

Recommendations

Follow the directions for using this medicine provided by your doctor. Take Lamisil exactly as directed.

Lamisil comes as a tablet to take by mouth.

Just take one tablet every day for 3 months with or without food and your nails may look and feel better again (or as directed/recommended by your doctor).

It usually takes a full 12 weeks of treatment with Lamisil Tablets to treat nail fungus infection in toenails. Treatment for nail fungus infection in fingernails takes only 6 weeks. You may start seeing clearer, healthier nails in just 3 months. Results may vary. Finish the full course of treatment as your doctor prescribed, so Lamisil Tablets can keep fighting the infection. It takes time for a healthy nail to grow in.

Keep your tablets at room temperature, away from heat and moisture.
