Lortisone creme

I was reading about this creme and it says that it should not be applied on face unless suggested by doctor.

Why should not it apply on face?

**Note to forum members: This creme is not for general use. **

Re: Lortisone creme

I think because it's harsh. When my doc prescribed it for my leg, she asked me not to use it for longer than 2 weeks, no matter what.

Re: Lortisone creme

^ Yes, this is what my doctor told me that no longer than 2 weeks.

Fungus

Re: Lortisone creme

The med didn't do much for me. To be fair though, I didn't use it properly.

Re: Lortisone creme

I hope it works well for you.

Re: Lortisone creme

These creme should use with due steps. If it says two times in day then do it. It is showing positive results on me.

I know :hinna: I don’t plan on using it ever again.
I think my eczema is related to food. Not sure, but I think it’s chicken and eggs. I’ve cut them out of my diet for the past 2-3 weeks and it’s getting better.

Re: Lortisone creme

It's a steroid + anti-fungal cream. Your face skin layers are different from other parts of the body skin layers. Excessive usage of this cream can make your face skin thinner, which can lead to cracking of the skin, which can lead to infections.
