My husband was prescribed Lamisil for a toenail fungus and now feels very tired, dizzy and has a stuffy nose. This has gone on now for at least a month, coincidentally the month he has been on Lamisil. Symptoms didn't start right away, but are pretty severe. Is this common? Should he discontinue the Lamisil?
Are dizziness, tiredness, stuffy nose side effects of Lamisil? Would another medication help?
