Help! Clobetasol Prop 0.05% Solution for Psoriasis: Is It Worth the Side Effects?

I've been prescribed Clobetasol Prop 0.05% Solution 50ml for my psoriasis, and I'm a bit worried about the potential side effects. Has anyone used this before? The list of possible side effects is quite long, and I'm not sure if the relief it provides is worth the risk. I've heard it can cause everything from skin thinning to Cushing's syndrome. Has anyone experienced these issues or knows someone who did? I'd really appreciate any insights or personal experiences. Please share your thoughts!

Be careful with this stuff. It's strong and can mess with your hormones if you're not careful. I've seen people develop moon face and other issues. Talk to your doctor about monitoring your blood sugar and adrenal function.

Hey everyone, just wanted to share a quick tip! I found that applying it on clean, dry skin after showering helped me avoid some of the irritation and burning

I switched to a topical vitamin D analog like calcipotriene. It’s gentler on the skin and works well for me. No need to worry about Cushing's Syndrome

I had to stop using it because of some weird skin changes and severe shaking too.
