How Many Days To Take Co Aleva

How long can I take Co-Aleva since I have psoriasis? When I stopped after taking it for 14 days I had a very bad flare up, because I still eat foods that I'm not allowed to like foods with Gluten and Dairy. I think what's happening to me is what we called "withdrawal"? Can I try to take it again just for 7 days and stop eating foods that's not allowed to see if it will clear up?

If you stop a medication that you are taking for a certain condition, and the condition flares up, again, that would be called a rebound effect.

If you continue to eat foods that you aren't supposed to, then the flare may not even be related to stopping the medication, or it could be a combination of both.

Co-Aleva contains Betamethasone [1] (a corticosteroid) + Ebastine (an antihistamine). The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, acne, headace, irritability, and weight changes.

As to taking it, again, you should only do so with your doctor's approval.
