I've been using Ammonium Lac 12% Cream for a few weeks now to treat my dry, scaly skin, and I've seen some improvements, but I'm also experiencing some irritation. Has anyone else had this issue? I'm wondering if I should continue using it or if I should talk to my doctor about switching to something else. Also, I'm curious if anyone has any tips for maximizing the effectiveness of this cream. Does anyone know if it's safe to use on sensitive areas like the face, or should I be sticking to areas like hands and elbows? What have your experiences been with this medication?

I was recently prescribed Ammonium Lactate 12% Cream to treat my ichthyosis. I've been struggling with dry, scaly skin for years, and I'm hoping this cream will finally provide some relief. It's supposed to help the skin retain moisture and gently exfoliate dead skin cells. Has anyone else used this cream for ichthyosis? I'd love to hear about your experiences—whether it worked for you, how long it took to see results, and any side effects you might have encountered. Also, any tips on how to incorporate it into my skincare routine would be greatly appreciated! Looking forward to your insights.

I've been struggling with extremely dry, scaly skin for years, and my dermatologist recently prescribed Ammonium Lactate 12% Cream. I've seen some improvement, but I'm curious to hear from others who have used it, especially for conditions like ichthyosis. How has it worked for you? Any tips for application or dealing with side effects? I'm particularly interested in hearing if anyone has experienced any serious side effects or if it's generally well-tolerated.
