Common Questions and Answers about Dovonex cream generic

dovonex

Avatar n tn Ive been using nizoral shampoo every other day on the infected area and for the first 2 weeks was using lamisil or canensten cream (anitfungal). However the last doctor i went to prescribed me DOVONEX (calciptotriol). Ive done some research on what it is, and there is no link between Psoriasis(which is what dovonex is used for) and Pytriaisis Versicolor or even Tinea Versicolor, or any other fungal infections for that matter.

Avatar f tn One medicine which has been advised by many dermatologists for scar diminishing is contractubex gel/cream. You can seek your dermatologist/surgeon’s opinion before using this cream. Otherwise you can go in for glycolic peals, laser treatments and pressure dressings. Severe scarrings may need skin grafting by a plastic surgeon. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar n tn My psoriasis lasted aorund 10 days on the genitals. Of course it did not go away without me putting Dovonex on it. Dovonex is not exactly highly recommended for the genital area but it cleared mine right up. I have also got those painless type lesions that crust over and go away within 2 weeks.
Avatar m tn my son has severe plaque psoriasis. he is on medicare and dovonex is not covered. What other medicine can he use and is there any financial assistance.?
Avatar n tn I use econazole cream - and it works great. No messy Selsen nights for me. I use the cream on the spots and around the surrounding area for at least 5-7 days (once or twice a day depending on how bad). It can be a pain if it is all over your back for instance - but dilligence and consistent use of the cream will kill it fast. This last time I only did it for 3-4 days and it covered most of my back. It's gone and the tanning bed has returned my skin to normal in a few sessions.
Avatar n tn Hello, my six month old son was born with ILVEN. It starts on the back of his shoulder and goes down his arm to the crease of his arm. We have been going to a pediatric dermatologist since we first noticed it. They did a biopsy and it came back as ILVEN. His dermatologist prescribed dovonex and a steroid cream I apply twice daily. I have been doing this for 3 months now and I don't see any change at all. Our next appointment is in another 3 months to check it.
Avatar m tn • Continuous long-term use of topical calcineurin inhibitors, including ELIDEL Cream, in any age group should be avoided, and application limited to areas of involvement with atopic dermatitis. Also limit your exposure to sunlight.
Avatar f tn I have been on betamethasone, desonide, dovonex (for a year) and, now, clobetasol (once a day). I will be undergoing phototherapy in a month. My question is whether or not it is safe to have phototherapy on thinning skin. Also, should I treat thinning skin with moisturizers or is there another solution? I have terrible bruising; but the cream seems to be working.
Avatar f tn m still noticing a few on my boobs and butt. I was curious what stretch mark cream work well to reduce the ones already there and prevent new ones?
Avatar m tn I found out a rash on parts of my chest and abdomen is tinea versicolor (spelling?). The dermatologist prescribed Ketoconazole cream. Anyone know if that is safe to use with Lyme Disease.? I looked online but found only mentions of the pill.
Avatar f tn I have been switched to Dovonex for the treatment of psoriasis, but experienced achey joints and hormonal fluctuations after prolonged use of Desonide (0.05%). I was wondering if this is just a coincidence (that I am just naturally predisposed to having thyroid problems) or if I misused the ointment.
Avatar m tn A generic: Clotrimazole cream would probably work as it's for "jock itch". It is also available in creams for women. - I hope you and your Mom get well soon.
Avatar n tn Took valtrex for years, almost 100% complete remission. I started taking the generic last June. Since taking the generic, i have had a few typical obs in the last yr. In Feb of this yr, I started having symptoms of an what i thought was an ob for months and months without relief. I take a gram of valacyclovir daily and even doubling the dose for week straight didnt seem to help what was going on. The skin just wouldn't heal. Went to a doctor who evaluated my labia, vulva and anal areas.

Avatar f tn @FruitLoop123: Ive heard the generic cream works better than the wipes. Thank you ladies!! I just bought some cream, hopefully it works!!
Avatar f tn Hi, I think you may have Lichen Simplex Chronicus or Lichen Planus, if you google chronic itching you will find more information. These are related to having Pruritis in people with hepatitis C. Usually we have an underlying skin itch, not exactly pinpointed, and we scratch, sometimes from this scratching or rubbing we create a 'chronic' itch, then we end up with the scabs and scars etc.
Avatar f tn Do NOT take this pill while pregnant. I used to get yeast infections chronically and was told I was NOT allowed to while pregnant. You can however use Monistat cream inserts from the store.
Avatar m tn He then told me he was going to prescribe me acyclovir cream, I then told him again that it does not help. He erased prescribing me the cream afterwards. He was not listening. I really do not know what to do, I am trying my very best. Please help.
Avatar f tn My doctor said use the cream. I just so happened to ask for sure yesterday at my appointment. But do not use the pill. I always get the off brand yeast infection cream it clears up in 2 days.
Avatar f tn I was told two months ago that the lesions and dryness on the corners of my mouth were caused by angular cheilitis. The first treatment attempt was with OTC athletes foot cream. This did nothing to alleviate the infection. I was then given a prescrition for Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide. Within a week of using this cream 2x a day all visible signs of infection were gone. I continued to use the cream for 2-3 days after this. I enjoyed 3 or 4 days free from infection.
Avatar n tn Hi guys, I got a hemorrhoidal thrombus just outside my anus, the typical little black-purple vein, that i'm treating with a cream the doctor suggested me. The thing that's bothering me is a generic sensation of disconfort and silent little pain in the pubic area, like if it's affecting my pudendal and piriformis muscles. I had this sensation in the past after heavy training, squats and gym excersises, but now i feel it more. Is this disconfort caused by hemorrhoids?
Avatar n tn m really relieved because I have hope now. The dermatologist I went to gave me Dovonex and Vectical cream. They are caleciterol creams (contain heavy amounts of vitamin D). I didn't put it on as much because I keep losing patience (lol). But I want to know if you think my burn scar will go away with ginger juice and vitam D. And how about the gel from vitamin D capsules??
Avatar n tn are fungal infections cureable with drugs? is there an over the counter fix? i have it on my testicles. crusty hairs and itching. please help me KILL IT!!
1718217 tn?1309841424 sounds to me like just a yeast infection, you can purchase meds for that over the counter. The generic brands work just as good.
