"I had red patches on the skin area under my eyebrows. It is hard to notice until it spread beyond the hairy area. Then it becomes itchy and scales a lot. I sweat a lot, and obviously, sweat lines are feeding the redness. I tried all sorts of creams - nothing really worked. Actually, fluocinolone gel isn't the cure either, but it works, and it works fast. I am using the generic Sinoderm in gel form (easier to apply over the hairy area). I am using it only before bedtime. After 2-3 days, symptoms improve dramatically. Depending on the condition before I start the treatment, it can stop skin scaling and redness within 1-5 days (5 days only if the condition was neglected for a while)."

Fluocinolone topical "Keratosis: Having used this cream for 6 days I have 1 left and cannot wait to finish. Although the condition has improved following 3 weeks using Efudex cream, which caused a widespread rash, I am told it could take up to two months to clear up. I have found that after four days I had diarrhea and felt sick, I have also been feeling depressed and quite weepy over the last couple of days and lost my appetite."

"I was suffering from a rash for 10 months, and this was the only thing that brought me relief. The relief was such that I overused it, and unfortunately, it thinned my skin considerably. I ended up finding out that what was causing my rash was my blood pressure medication, so I am cured now and no longer need fluocinolone. Would I use it again? Yes. Would I be more careful? You bet I would. Way... way more careful."
