Well, nearly all drugs can act on the liver. The liver and the kidneys are the two organs responsible for detoxifying the blood. I am using the term "toxic" loosely. Drugs can strain the adeptness of the liver to detoxify the blood, which can reason liver damage. It is true that antifungal medications taken orally has a better risk of causing damage to the liver than compare to aspirin or ibuprofen. However, they are relatively safe. You mentioned you own a fungal infection in your nails. Fungal infection of the skin can be treated with topical antifungal cream. But, there are two exceptions, infections involving hair follicles and infections to nail beds. Both of these exceptions require taken the medication orally rather than topically. The reason is simple, topical medication can not able reach in to hair follicles and nail beds. Moreover, there are sure drugs which you can not take while you are on the antifungal medication. For case, Claritin (allergy medication) can not be taken while on antifungal medication. As always, talk to your doctor approximately the risks and benefits of treatment. Too, inform your doctor provided you familiarity any side thing from the medication.

That would be right. They test liver service aboriginal before giving the pills, or at least they should. It is a rare side aftereffect, however one that must be taken in to care.

Yes, before you amuse the prescription, the dr should accomplish a simple blood test, you should alone amuse 6 weeks of medicine, then accomplish another blood test and amuse the at the end 6 weeks. I've been on it twice any more - approximately 10 years apart - and own not had any problems.

It is a rare side aftereffect, however serious enough that it needs to be followed with blood tests. My mom took Lamisil with no problems at all and it worked good for her.



Bena

YES... that's true



Grenora

That is most definitely true...you're supposed to own your liver checked ever 6 months provided you're on these drugs

I already own liver damage, so when I was faced with fungus too I took some extreme steps however not the meds. I placed a extract stopper(plug), a box of salt, and a bag complete of dried eucalyptus leaves following to my shower. Everytime I took a shower I put the plug in, dumped a half cup of salt and a half cup of the eucalyptus leaves and then took a continued shower, allowing the water to soak my feet. I took a while....at least 6 months however it did work. Salt and eucalyptus are both anti-fungial. I tried to stay in the shower at least 10 minutes at a time. Too, always wear new socks and trade shoes everyday. Never wear the same shoes two days in a row. Spray your shoes with Lysol after each wearing. Clean feet and shoes is the answer to beating this fungus! Great luck!
