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.
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.?
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.
Hi, I am really really concerned about a burn scar which I have on my left hand. I burned my hand with hot wax in a little area about a size of a quarter about 6 months ago. Now I have a white scar on that area. I've been to a dermatologist and they prescribed me Dovonex and Vectical ointment. I've been using Dovonex and now I'm using Vectical. The dermatologist told me I should keep putting the ointment on before I think of doing something else.
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.
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.
Have you tried Dovonex, a vitamin D3 derivitive, on your elbows? Might be stronger than Elidel on that part of the body. Ointment is stronger than cream. Just be careful not to get it on your face so best to wear long sleeves after applying so you won't accidently touch.Also, as mentioned, Protopic -- very similar to Elidel -- is a bit stronger and sometimes works better than Elidel.
Ive been using Nizoral shampoo and used a couple fo antifungal creams. But recently iive been prescribed Dovonex. I have no idea why though =\
How can i know if the fungus is gone and whether i should stoop using the dovonex as it is starting to irritate me and is a hassle putting it on.
I know I am being a pain in the *** but, just to be clear, is it true that HIV virus cannot survive outside human body- thus not in the solutions? (becase I heard the virus, it needs protein in order to survive)
The fact that I do not know for sure the test kit and the solution are in any ways 'virus-free,' I am getting this irrational fears that the developer solution might have been contaminated with HIV.
Count me in. I've also suffered with this ridiculous problem since I was 19. I'm now 28 & have had all the tests. Everything checks out fine, but the symptoms stay the same. Alcohol is the trigger for me. There are days when I sense some tenderness without alcohol, but not the burning pain. Now there are weeks when I'm fine, then weeks when I'm not. The method of ejaculation makes no difference.
i would like to ask what might be the solution to eradicate the dark part of the vagina. When i saw it, its not good to see..because i think it was blackened because of itching...is there possible solution to bring it back to its color.
eventually, as your son gets older he will realize that he cannot see as well as he would like and the only solution is to wear his glasses. That is eventually what I learned, so despite my hatred of wearing glasses I have grown to tolerate them.
Good luck and have patience.
