I've been prescribed Fluocinonide 0.05% Ointment for severe eczema, but the side effects list is terrifying. Has anyone used this and found it to be effective? I've been battling with eczema for years, and I'm at my wits' end. Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated I want to get better, but I'm not sure if it's worth the risk of long-term side effects. Also, the ointment itself smells really bad, even though the pharmacist said it’s normal. Is there any way to reduce the smell?
