Can Lobate Cream Be Used For Long Term For Skin Rashes And Itching?

My mother is 86 yrs old. She started having rashes all over the body with itching and burning sensation. She is mildly diabetic, does not take any medicine for this. Controlled only by diet control. She was diagnosed for moderate pollen allergy. She was prescribed Lobate cream. with this there is great improvement. She has been using it for about 3 months now. Now it is sparingly applied only when there is eruptions. Is it ok for a prolonged usage of the cream?

Hi,

As I have noticed that she has diabetes which is a high blood sugar. In some people, they might experience an increase in blood glucose levels. Lobate Cream is effective in treating inflammatory skin conditions like eczema and dermatitis. It works by reducing the actions of chemicals (inflammatory mediators) in the body that cause inflammation of the skin.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
