Anyone have experience using Lexette 0.05% Top Foam 50gm (2pk) for plaque psoriasis?

I've been recently diagnosed and I'm really curious about this topical foam treatment. I've heard it can be effective but I've also heard horror stories about the side effects. I've got a 2-pack prescription and before I start using it I'd love to hear from anyone who has used it. What's your experience like? I'd especially appreciate tips on how to apply, how often, and how long it takes to see results. Were the side effects as bad as they sound? And how did you manage them?

I've been using it for a couple of months now. I apply a thin layer to the affected areas once a day, usually before bed. It's helped reduce the redness and itching significantly. Just be careful not to use too much, as it can thin out your skin over time.

I had the worst dry skin after applying it. I had to switch to a different moisturizer to manage it. Also, some of the side effects are serious be careful everyone do your own research.

I've heard some people say it's better to use it sparingly and gradually increase the frequency. Maybe that could help with the initial discomfort.

Lexette has been a game-changer for me. I noticed a difference within a week. It's not completely gone, but it's much more manageable now. I had some initial dryness, but that went away after a week.

I had some irritation where I applied it, but it went away after a few days. Just be patient and give your skin time to adjust. It works great. But I used it for only 6 weeks.

I've been using it for a few weeks now and I'm not seeing any results. Is it just me, or does it take a while to see any improvements? I'm hoping it's just not working fast enough and not that I'm a rare case.
