Has anyone had success and or trouble using Topicort 0.05% Gel 60gm for treating Psoriasis?
I have been dealing with psoriasis for years and was recently prescribed Topicort 0.05% Gel. I've heard it can be really effective, but I'm also a bit worried about the potential side effects, especially the serious ones like signs of an allergic reaction or Cushing's syndrome. Has anyone else used this? How did it work for you? Did you experience any of the more serious side effects, or was it mostly just local irritation? I would really appreciate some personal insights before I start treatment
Topicort helped me a lot with my psoriasis. I had some local irritation at first, but it went away after a few days. It's been a game-changer for my skin!
I had severe side effects, including intense skin thinning and changes in vision. I had to stop using it and switch to a different treatment. Be cautious and monitor any unusual symptoms closely.
I think it's important to follow the doctor's instructions closely. I had a friend who overused it and ended up with some nasty side effects.
I've had a similar experience—it worked well, but be careful with how you wash your hands afterwards.
I switched to a different corticosteroid because of the side effects. My skin reacted like crazy to Topicort.
My doctor warned me about the risk of allergic reactions, so I'm glad I didn't experience any. Just some mild itching, which was easily managed.
I've been using it for a few weeks now, and it's been great. No serious side effects, just a bit of dryness.
I didn't have any serious side effects, but the local irritation was pretty uncomfortable. It's worth it for the relief from psoriasis, though.
Has anyone tried any natural remedies in combination with Topicort? I'm curious if that helps with the side effects.
I'm new to this and just got prescribed Topicort. This thread has been super helpful. Thanks, everyone!
