Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I've been using Enstilar for about three weeks. All the scaly tissue is completely gone, and the red spots are clearing up. It's great stuff. Because I live in the UK, it's free to me. I looked it up, and if I had to buy it, it would be £60 per can."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "Within 24 hours, it started to work. Now, after 1 week of use, it has almost cleared up. No more itching and flaky skin... fabulous! The only bad thing is that when using it on my hair, it leaves it very greasy."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I have had psoriasis for the last 20 years and used many different medicines, including injecting methotrexate, and none of them worked. I was skeptical about Enstilar foam, but I used it daily for 4 weeks, and the results are amazing. I've stopped using it now for about a month, and my skin still seems to be improving, and I am hopeful for the future now."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "Been using Enstilar for about 4 years. At first, it was used primarily as a touch-up for Enbrel and worked great. But I fell off the Enbrel wagon due to the leg sting, injector aversion, and a royal pain in the butt co-pay assistance program. What a yank! Now just on Enstilar and seeking a decent base drug to build on as, even though it helps greatly with plaques and redness, I just don't think Enstilar is a qualified continuous base treatment for this condition."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "Have had moderate psoriasis since age 11 (26 years). Nothing has ever worked treatment-wise. Was admitted to the hospital 3 weeks ago (for mental health reasons), and the doctor prescribed Enstilar as soon as they saw my skin. My skin has dramatically improved. Started to see a difference after the 2nd application. I am very impressed. Just hope it continues to improve and I can become psoriasis-free or at least almost psoriasis-free. I'm from the UK, and Enstilar was free of charge on our NHS."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I have suffered from psoriasis for many years and had every cream and ointment! Even strong medication for 10 years! I have recently been prescribed this, and it worked within 24 hours!! After reading other reviews, I'm so glad that I get this on the NHS and don't have to pay! Definitely recommend trying this product."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "After experiencing severe dandruff, scaling, and occasional itching that would not go away using over-the-counter dandruff shampoos, I made a trip to my dermatologist. Was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp. I was prescribed Taclonex, which has worked wonders. After just one use, my scalp was almost cleared of all scale and flaking. After using daily for one week, it completely cleared. When it's cleared completely, I stop using it and just use over-the-counter dandruff shampoo to keep it under control. When it starts flaring up again, I go right back to the Taclonex, and once again when it is cleared completely, I stop using it and just use over-the-counter dandruff shampoo to keep it under control. When it starts flaring up again, I go right back to the Taclonex and it clears it right up again."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "Like others have said, it's a foam, but it's sticky like glue. It helps a little bit in keeping flare-ups at bay, and it may get rid of some very small spots, but it's not going to do much for any large, inflamed patches."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I found that my plaques were softened by the scalp oil. I found the scalp oil easy to wash out in a single washing. Those were positives. I stopped using it for the simple reason that I couldn't sleep. I wear a night guard for my teeth grinding and a CPAP for sleep apnea. By the time I put the thing in my mouth for my teeth, oiled up my head, placed a shower cap, followed by the CPAP, I felt smothered and found it difficult to sleep. The addition of oil and the plastic hat (which is noisy) made my CPAP slip off and require attention frequently in the night. Bedtime was a circus, and scalp oil was a challenge I couldn't keep in my routine."

"I have only used Enstilar for about 2 months, and so far it hasn't helped me, but I don't use it often because of the issues below. 1. Skin feels like you sprayed glue on it..sticky, can't dress until you stop sticking. 2. Spray is messy, goes everywhere, and hard to hold the can and spray on awkward spots. 3. Foam comes out ice cold, which is painful to psoriasis. This one is nutty to me. 4. Horrible to wash out of hair. Did this once, never again. Might be more effective if it was in a big tub, NOT a tube."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "Taclonex suspension worked, but the cost was out of this world!! Can drugs had only Taclonex gel, and I don't like it at all. Cost was 200.00!! Made my scalp worse, and it's too greasy!! Been looking for help, but 2 doctors were not any help. Next, I'll try Mexico. Gotta be some relief soon."

"After almost 5 years on Cosentyx, I had a pretty bad flare-up of plaque psoriasis. The usual topicals weren’t helping. My dermatologist told me to try Wynzora for 8 weeks. By week 3, I saw drastic improvement - no side effects."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I just started using the product for a week. Not sure if I'm using it correctly. I'm doing what the doctor told me, and that was for two weeks to apply a thin coat to the affected area. So far, after one week, things look good. He said after the second week is done, I'm to use it sparingly and use 6 cream or ointment unless I see an outbreak. Tell me, interesting and concerned about this foam spray that I'm using is that it's freezing cold - like freezer burn - freezer burn is about the only way I can explain it. It's not so, to me, it's more dry and absolutely frigid cold. I don't know if this is normal 'cause my doctor didn't say anything about that."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "It is very helpful to clear out any sign of psoriasis in a short interval of time (2-3 days), but the signs keep returning over and over again. I prefer something more useful over the long term. Still, good job!"

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I was a psoriasis sufferer for over 30 years, tried all the creams from A-Z, nothing to write home about. Then I tried Enstilar, the product was amazing, but I needed to maintain my psoriasis daily, which I am not good at. Then Skyrizi gets approved, and within 3 months (2 injections for starters, then 1 every 3 months), I am completely clear for over a year."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "I thought it was doing a fantastic job, but then I developed folliculitis from the sheer greasiness of this product. It isn't easy to wash out, and then it plugs up all the follicles on your head. So it works but then causes another problem, which was as equally worse as the original problem. It needs a different medium to transport the active ingredients."

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "This is the only stuff that has worked for me over the last 25 years or so, since I started suffering from psoriasis. Like many people with the condition, I was embarrassed to wear shorts and a T-shirt, but Enstilar cleared the plaques, redness, and itching up within a few days. I use it sparingly, and I don’t find the foam a problem or too sticky. Miracle cure for me, but I can see from some reviews that it doesn’t work for everyone. I haven’t used it on my scalp yet. I have some calcipotriol liquid that evaporates quickly when applied to scalp/hair, but it hasn’t worked too well. I’m thinking of trying Enstilar, but can see people have had issues washing it out, so I might just live with it and be happy the rest of my body is clear. Use sparingly. Fantastic results!"

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "Can’t seem to get it to work that well. I can’t believe some are paying so much for the stuff! I live in Northern Ireland and get it free of the NHS! Healthcare sucks elsewhere, I guess! Fighting psoriasis is a bloody nightmare!"

Betamethasone / calcipotriene topical "After 37 years, I have tried all the shampoos, creams, oils out there. I am still refusing biologics though... the stuff can give you lymphoma, no thanks. My dermatologist gave me samples of Taclonex topical suspension, and I liked it right away. I like that it stays on long enough to soften my plaques. It eases some of my relentless itching immediately so that I can sleep. I paid 40 dollars for my prescription because I called my insurance ahead of time to get it approved, that saved me 1200 dollars. It worked well for me when I got samples, here is hoping it continues to work for a while."
