Brief Answer:
Stop Melanocyl soln.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I understand your concern.

You seem to have allergic reaction to Melanocyl soln.

I advise you to stop applying this drug.

Skin drying and peeling are caused by this drug adverse reaction.

Topical steroids and Vitamin D analogues are the main stay for this condition.

Calcipotriene Ointment -Apply this to affected skin twice a day.

Clobetasol Ointment-Apply this to the affected areas twice a day.

These drugs will cause excellent resolution of symptoms.

Please note these drugs have to be taken only under medical surveillance.

Thank you.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
