For Rosacea "Oh, how I wish I had read the reviews before using Mirvaso. I have had a terrible reaction. At first, I was so pleased with how it toned down the redness on my cheeks, but two weeks later, my face is really red and burning. I started using Mirvaso hoping to improve my redness before my son's wedding day, but unfortunately, I look much worse than I have ever done. I applied only a small amount on one side of my face for a few days and was happy with the improvement, so then used it on both cheeks, even my eyes feel sore. I regret ever using this. I didn’t put any on my nose, but my goodness, just call me Rudolf."

For Rosacea "I have used Mirvaso for three years now. Quite frankly, I love the stuff. There is a lot I would do without before I would give up my prescription. It really eliminates the redness on my face and lasts for a while. Yes, triggers can still set off a flare. As far as rebound, I don’t notice any difference between before I used it and after using it. As I said, I love the stuff. It is extremely expensive, and I’m very grateful that my insurance covers it. But if you have to pay for it out-of-pocket, know that you only need a tiny amount and a tube of it will go a long way."

For Rosacea "Horrible rebound flushing/red spots. Do not touch this stuff. It's been one year, and redness/flushing side effects still have not normalized."

For Rosacea "I’ve had a red flushing face my whole life, and nothing helped. My doctor prescribed me this, and for the first 3 days, I was shocked, my redness went away nearly completely. I was so happy. Then on day 4, my face randomly flared up worse than it ever had before. It didn't go away for hours. I stopped using the cream, and yesterday and today, my face will randomly go bright red in certain spots and get bigger and bigger. I’m scared this won’t go away. DON'T use this cream, you will regret it."
