I have been using Moiztal cream and Clobetasol for my rosacea for a month as prescribed, but it has not healed yet. What alternative medicine or treatment should I use now?

Asked by Female, 38 · 6 days ago

Please consult your dermatologist immediately. Clobetasol is a highly potent topical steroid that is generally not recommended for rosacea, as it can worsen the redness and cause steroid-induced rosacea over time. You should safely taper off this steroid under medical supervision. More appropriate and effective alternative treatments for rosacea include topical metronidazole, azelaic acid, or ivermectin cream. For persistent cases, oral antibiotics like low-dose doxycycline are often prescribed. You should continue using Moiztal cream, as maintaining a hydrated skin barrier with gentle, fragrance-free moisturisers is crucial. Please do not start any new prescription treatments without a doctor's direct evaluation.
