Re: side effects of Noritate and MetroGel

[Guest guest]

I've tried it. You can get it with a tint too. It didn't hurt but it didn't

help either. You may have better results. See if your derm will give you a

sample. My derms always give me samples so I rarely have to buy these products

which is nice. You notice I say derms - I'm always switching around.

I am being " treated " for cea (combined with Seb. Derm, lucky me), and I

was given MetroGel. It inflamed my condition, i.e. made it more red and added

a nice burning sensation. After calling my doctor about the side effects, he

prescribed Noritate. The same thing is happening...increased redness,

burning. My face is now at its worst. Are these just " normal " side effects

and I should be patient (instruction sheet for the Noritate said it can " take

a few weeks " for the medication to work), or are these side effects an

indication that something else should be tried.

I came across a medication on the web called Sulfacet-R. Has anyone had any

success with it?

Thanks,

Matt
