| Other conditions: | | none |
| Other drugs taken: | | none | | |
Reported Results |
| Benefits: | | My therapist prescribe this cream, as I develpe dark sport on my skin on the back from exema. The sport were itchy so I couldn't sleep well and they turned dark due to post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation.
I am still using the cream but it effectively eliminated any itching and dark sport reduce in size and became lighter.
In fact, my therapist later prescribed a more potent cream, betamethasone dipropionate 0.05%, but I felt that the first one was more effective in my case.

| Side effects: | | none |
| Comments: | | I used 0.1% cream three times daily on clean skin for one month |
