Dermatitis & Rosacea treatment

2018-01-21 08:24:30
Hi, I have been using locoid lipocream twice a day on my face and also taking one tablet a day of lymecycline for approximately 3 years to combat my dermatitis and rosacea . The dryness, spots and redness have been great while I've been using these prescriptions however I'm worried there may be some long term effects from using these types of medication as a long term solution. Is this the case? Thanks.

You're using lymecycline for too long. Stop it. And consult with a dermatologist
