Author  Topic    sammy USA 35 Posts Posted - 09/24/2007 :  17:13:47     Forrest my son is home (3 tours in Iraq) and I finally had a chance to discuss this treatment with him. He gave me some info. on a topical (prescription) that may be helpful to you. He was only allowed to be on the Lamisil T. for 3 months. He didn't use a topical just the pills. After 18 months he had a recurrence. The Dr. did not want to prescribe the oral Lamisil T. again. He was prescribed a topical by the name of Penlac. It is a clear liquid that you brush on like nail polish. No problem after 5 yrs. Just thinking that this Penlac may give you a tad more of a boost. I haven't checked MedsMex but, perhaps it is available there. Hope all is well. fforest 103 Posts Posted - 09/24/2007 :  22:57:07     Sammy thanks for the info....I will look into Penlac...Lamisil seem to be a good helper.But I doubt its a cure...O-how I wish there was only one treatment for all skin cancers...    Topic
