I have been using jublia every night before bed for 4 months, I'm only on my second bottle, with my insurance it only costs me $30. It lasts a lot longer than 1 month. I have seen great results in a short period of time, very satisfied with this product. ## Hello, Bee! How are you? I'm so glad that Jublia is working so well for you. Have you experienced any side effects, such as those listed by the FDA, which may include skin redness, irritation and ingrown nails? So far, it's kind of had mixed reviews, with many saying it didn't work for them, or didn't last as long as it should have. Has anyone else had good luck with Jublia? ## I've been using Jublia for about 10 months and the fungus is gone. No side effects at all. It definitely worked for me.

Hi m lerato I would like 2 ask how long do the side effect last after using canex v?I have used canex v 4 3 days n it's no longer that painful when urinating does tht mean it's working? ## Hello, Lerato! How are you? Has there been any change? Canex V is listed as containing Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication that's commonly used to treat yeast infections. Its typical side effects, as reported by the U.S. FDA, may include discharge, spotting, skin redness and irritation, but they shouldn't last more than a few days after stopping it's use. However, it does not treat urinary tract infections, that would require an antibiotic. Have you had any more pain or burning?

Can't find any description about it ## Round white pill with a capital R top half a line with 500 bottom half ## Depending what condition your pill is in, is it possible that the letter may actually be "MP" (somewhat fused together)? Just wondering as I located a white round pill with MP over a score line and 500 underneath. The M & P are merged together as if it were one letter/logo. The other side being blank.

I am allergic for Sporanox, may I use Betamox? ## Hello, Cynthia! How are you? These are two different classes of medications. Sporanox is an antifungal, while Betamox is an antibiotic, so it should be fine, as long as your doctor has prescribed it. However, there is a risk that could also discover you are allergic to it. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

After 8 months, my podiatrist is now recommending an internal medicine. This drug is way too expensive for something that seems about as effective as over-the-counter topicals that don't claim to cure fungus. The bottle has next to nothing in it and the wick dispenser is a terrible idea. Sometimes not enough, sometimes way too much.

Prescribed lotrisone cream yesterday. Feels a little better. I have to use it for a week to ten days. Hope this works because they don't know really what it is. ## Hello, Janie! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. Did they take a culture? That would provide a definitive answer on whether or not its a fungus, bacteria or something else. The FDA classifies this medication as a steroid and it won't do anything to eradicate a fungus or bacteria. Its typical side effects may include skin irritation, redness, rash, itching and acne. Have you had any discharge? ## Hi I too have a problem with my vigana.and two weeks back I did went to the clinic and they gave me a glenmark clotrimazole viganal teblet.after three days my vigana started burning,even now i...

These are both antibiotics that are used to treat various types of bacterial infections, but they will not treat a fungal infection. The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. What condition is being treated? If he has a severe bacterial infection then it can be useful to prescribe more than one antibiotic.

Is terbinafine by Autobindo Pharmaceuticals gluten free? I have celiac disease and need to talk this medication. ## Aurobindo lists the starch in it as being derived from potatoes, so in theory, it should be fine, but there are no guarantees that there hasn't been any cross contamination, depending on where the starch was processed. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, skin rash and itching. Is there anything else I can help with?

Jublia is proof that drug companies think doctors are i****s, and the doctors deserve it. Jublia was approved by the FDA from studies that showed an 18% complete cure rate after 48 weeks (1 year). It must be put on every day during that period of time, and a bottle costs nearly $500 and lasts about 1 month. So, after spending many thousands of dollars and one year of effort, you have an 18% chance of a cure? Terbinafine pills cost $5 to $10 per month and have a 75% cure rate after 3 months. ## CON: Terbinafine has been clearly linked to rare instances of acute liver injury that can be severe and sometimes fatal. PRO: Jublia will not kill your liver Pretty toenails are not worth the risk of my Liver or Life ## Seeing those figures of 18%, it sounds like Jublia isn't any better than t...

Jublia is very, very expensive. It did not work. I bought rada tea tree oil on amazon for less than 10.00 bucks. I squirted a little antibiotic ointment in there, shook it up and used It daily. I saw results within 2 weeks. 3 months later my nail fungus / issues are almost gone!

This is normally used to treat fungal infections, such as yeast infections and isn't normally intended for long-term use. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including skin redness, irritation and dryness. ## Thank You Verwon for your concern. It seems that due to family background I have Syrosis.

Hi, Its been a few months now that I've had itching in my vagina, when I changed the washing powder it got beter, it went away now its back, I don't have access to medical practitioners, but I took a test that says everything is fine, what is it and what can I do to prevent it and overcome it? ## Hello, Chaney! How are you? Have you had any discharge, with the itching? I'm wondering if you may have a yeast infection, because they can keep returning, if left untreated.

It is a type of fungal infection that would require an antifungal medication to treat. Where is the nearest doctor?
