Before I had left to Mexico I was using Gelmicin for a month because I started to get a lot of Whitehead’s and textured skin mainly on my forehead and it helped my skin clear up fast! But when I left to Mexico while being over there my skin slowly went back to how it was and ever since I came back I’ve gotten more bumps on my face, so I switched up my routine and stopped Gelmicin. But i don’t know if I should try using it again? What should I do? ## Hi Yamilet, Gelmicin is indicated to be a topical antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and antifungal combination product. From what I've researched, Gelmicin isn't generally regarded as being used for acne, but depending on whether there's an infection present would likely be the deciding factor in so far as determini...

a topical cream ## Where can I buy Epitrel (generic for retin-A) ## This is used to treat acne, or prevent wrinkles. The FDA warns that it may cause side effects, such as redness, itching, burning, and flaking. Are either of you on any other medications?

I am a male and wanted to share my Accutane story with others who are thinking of starting the treatment but are worried about the horror stories you read everywhere. I started my accutane treatment when I was about 24 (Maybe 23) and sought treatment to relieve the severe "bacne" more specifically cystic acne I had been dealing with since I was 16 y/o and not only did it make me very self conscious but they also caused me a great deal of pain as I would get these huge zits that that often times would not even form any type of white head and they were extremely painful. After years and years of every acne treatment under the sun (pills, creams, soaps, diet changes), I finally said enough is enough and went to my dermatologist to learn more about accutane. As I am sure many people...

Hello, I am a 19 year old male and was prescribed accutane when I was 14 years old. I was a normal teenager that was taken advantage of the selfish, pharmacy, money over everything market. I was prescribed 40 mg for five months. I am currently a 19 year old male and suffer from severe depression, anxiety, and social anxiety. I have been on zoloft with almost no help. I never have energy and rarely feel motivation, energy, or sexual arrousal. I feel as though I am a 50 year old man who lost his testosterone. It stunted my growth as I did not grow a single inch after taking it and I am only 5'6" on a good day. I experience muscle weakness and back pain daily. I agree with Sara and we should all band together and fight for a lawsuit. Please email me at xxxxx@xxx {edited for privacy...

My wife has been suffering from Psoriasis for the last 4 years but for the 3 months it has been spread out heavily with Red spods on her whole body including scalp. So we are using Propysalic NF ointment. My question is how long will it take remove completely. ## Hello, Govinda! How are you and your wife? Propysalic is listed as containing a steroid, so it may cause some side effects, as listed by the FDA, which could include skin redness, irritation, acne and dryness. It also should only be used for a period of 2 to 4 weeks, if there is no improvement after that, she'll need to return to her doctor to explore other treatment options. There are also no guarantees that it will remove it completely, even if she uses it for a full month. How long will she be using it? ## Hi. I have bee...

It has almost been a year since I finished my 5 month accutane treatment, and I could not be happier with the results. I took 80mg a day for 5 months. I find this to be more than the usual amount given (my friend only took 30mg for 6 months), but I believe this aggressive and short treatment was the reason for such success (that same friend relapsed only a few months later... I think because of her low dosage). During accutane, I experienced extreme dryness (I even got eczema on my hands and arms), I had really bad back pain the last month or so of treatment, my hair thinned a little in the front (it has all grown back now), and my personality was a little more secluded too (this is probably because I was ashamed of my worsening acne and not due to the actual drug). My lips were really ...

I am wondering if there are any women who have completed their suggested doses of Accutane and had children later. Have there been birth defects that seem as though they could have been triggered by previous Accutane use? I know there are significant risks of birth defects while actively on the drug, but what about the long-term after-use impacts on reproduction? I wish I could ask some physicians to participate in a long-term, observational study for this but I'd have no idea how to go about it. It doesn't seem like anything is out there on this topic. ## Well, April….what I have to say on the subject is…. Having used sites like this for many years and having read/answered many, many posts there are a lot of people that have taken it and experienced health issues th...

Melas should not be used as a skin fairness cream... Melas cream should be used only at night before bed time for 15-20 minutes and then clean your face. And the next day use Melas ultra cream 5-6 times during the day. Note: After you've finished the product use only Melas soap... ## Meals cream is very effective - you all should use it. ## Can I still use melas cream for skin whitening if I don't have acne or pimples? Or will it cause side effects? ## I had used melas cream for 2 months, now my skin has become red and some pimples are forming by using this. What can I do? Please tell me as soon as possible.

can we use clobetasol propionate & salicylic acid ointment to the private parts? ## You should not use anything on your genitals that has not been specifically formulated to be used on them, unless your doctor has instructed you to do so. If you do so, it could result in infection, skin irritation, redness, burning, itching, and fungal infections, according to the NIH. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Can I apply clobetasol & salicylic acid cream can apply for scalp ## I'm using Clobetasol Propionate and Salicylic Acid Ointment. The acne has reduced in its size but the skin near the acne has become white in color. Will it be normal in a few days or should I get something done to it?

I have dark black spots on face caused by burning. can i use lobate gm neo to remove spots ## I have to many pimples in my face ## Can I use lobate gm neo 15m on my face for pimples and acne? Does it have any side effect? Thanks! ## Lobate-GM is listed as containing Clobetasol, which is a type of steroid. Thus, that means it may actually worsen some skin conditions, such as acne, because it can actually cause it, as a side effect. Other possible side effects, as listed by the FDA, may include skin dryness, redness and irritation. Taani, it isn't likely that it will help those dark spots, either. Have you consulted a dermatologist? ## Hello sir, I am staying in gulf. Here the weather is too hot. My age is 44. I have pigmentation problem since long time. Another problem is i have dark...

Round white pill with NC on center of one side, other side is blank ## acne medicine ## Devon is correct, this is an over the counter product used to treat acne, it is sold under the brand name Nature's Cure, though I cannot provide the specific formulation of this one, since they use the same logo on all of their products. The FDA warns that their products are only supplements, so they are not actually proven to help with anything. They may also be contraindicated with some prescription medications, and some medical conditions. Some people also experience nausea, and diarrhea as side effects. Are there any questions?

Hi. I finished my 6 month Accutane treatment a month ago and have been feeling very weird since then. I have a lack of energy, loss of appetite, and get full after only 2-4 bites of a meal. My first period since I finished accutane was awful. I'm usually very light and don't have any major cramps but this month, it was horrendous. Could these symptoms be my body trying to get used to being off of the medicine? I haven't read anywhere about side effects after your treatment but, I haven't been doing anything different in my lifestyle. Thanks so much! ## Hello, Lindsey! How are you? I'm sorry about how you're feeling. After finishing your course of treatment with it, it would actually be withdrawal effects and yes, it is completely possible to experience them, beca...

i found a little white pill with the letters RR on 1 side and the other side is blank... what is this pill??? ## This meets the description of an over the counter supplement said to help with acne called Herbal Harvest. It contains Calcium, Belladonna and Potassium. I cannot, however, find more listings to confirm this. Was it found in the U.S.? ## It is a speed pill, cleaner and about about 2x more potent then the ice ones, 4x more so then Ufcs , Great find - valued at 30 a pop and very rare here in Canada ! ## So the white round pill with a RR is a speed pill??
