Has anyone used Prednicarbate 0.1% Ointment for eczema or psoriasis?
I've been prescribed Prednicarbate 0.1% Ointment for my eczema and I'm a bit nervous about the possible side effects. I've read some scary stuff online about potential allergic reactions, high blood sugar, and even Cushing's syndrome. Has anyone else had experience with this ointment? How did it work for you? Were there any side effects? Any advice or tips on how to manage the side effects if they do occur would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Not sure about the other side effects, but the itching stopped for me almost immediately. Just be patient, it might take a few days to see results.
My friend used it and said it gave her a moon face. I don't know if that's from the ointment or just a coincidence.
I used it for a week and it worked wonders, but I started getting these weird stretch marks. Is that normal?
I've used it for my psoriasis and it really helped with the redness and itching. No major side effects for me, just a bit of dry skin. Make sure to follow the instructions closely and don't overuse it.
Don't joke about the Cushing's syndrome. My aunt had it and it was really serious.
