Reviews
| Add Clobetasol review I have been using this for lichen planus simplex. If use 2 times a day I experienced dizziness after about 6 months use. I can only tolerate 1 time a day and use fluocinonide 1 time a day. | Add Taclonex review I've been losing my hair and have had my period continuously since I started Taclonex. That being said, my rash has mostly disappeared but I still have faded red blotches and flaky/dry skin. | |||
