The first thing your healthcare professional may do is look at your nails. If he or she thinks you may have a nail fungus infection, your doctor may do any of the following things:

Bullet Your doctor may clip a piece of your nail to have it examined in the office or at a lab.
Bullet Your doctor may ask you several questions to learn more about the problem and if you've tried treating it with any "home remedies" or over-the-counter medicines.
Bullet Your doctor may perform a simple blood test before prescribing Lamisil Tablets.



Unlike surface treatments, Lamisil Tablets work through the bloodstream to attack the infection where it lives, deep in your nail bed.

Your healthcare professional may discuss different treatment options for your nail fungus infection. Let your doctor know you want an effective treatment that can help you start seeing clearer, healthier nails again. Don't be afraid to ask any questions you may have. Ask if Lamisil Tablets are the right treatment for you.

A treatment story
"[My doctor] told me, if you had a bad liver, that you couldn't take Lamisil Tablets. I went on and got my blood work done. The blood test wasn't a big deal at all."
