I started taking lamisil for a toe nail funggas and within a week I started having pain in my knee. I havenot had it tested but after 3 months of off/on pain, it seems to fit gout. My father also had gout. I was just wondering if the lamisil could have created the right conditions to develop gout? I have stopped taking it as of a week ago but I am still dealing with pain at this time. I was hoping finishing the round of meds would get rid of this knee pain.
