Can you use flutivate cream on regular basis ?

I am suffering from skin allergy for the last 14 years, it is chronic in nature. Always recurring in the month of February to April i.e. winter to summer. Few years back a skin doctor prescribed me flutivate skin cream for allergy. It resulted very well. Later on I started to take it on my own without prescribtion, whenver allergy strikes me again on skin (alongwith Allegra180). Now I am noticing it results in good skin also, can I use it daily just as night cream.

Hi dear
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
It is not advisable to use Flutivate cream(a steroid ) for such long periods.Please use it only when there is an allergy.Long term use of steroid cream can lead to other infections.
Take care.
