Will I Continue Using Clobetasol Propionate As Sun Exposure Darkens My Face?
My doctor prescribed clobetasol propionate for my facial dark spots for 2 months now. It was effective but when im exposed to just a little bit sun my face darkens a bit even if im using sunblock spf 50. Will i continue using it? Is it safe to use for more months?
Hi !! Clobetasol propionate is a high potency steroid and should not be used on the face as it can lead to various side effects like redness, increased hair growth and thinning of the skin.You have already used it for 2 months and I would recommend you to discontinue its use immediately.
