For Rosacea "Applied Soolantra cream samples to entire face and neck for 3 nights. Developed intense itching, redness, and multiple red bumps and pustules on my cheeks and neck after the 3rd dose. I went from mild redness with no bumps to broken out and itching like crazy. I sure hope this goes away soon! Waiting on a call back from my dermatologist to find out what to do."

For Rosacea "Ok, so I started on Soolantra back in December. I was on Rozex before, once daily, but it had stopped working and was giving my skin this horrible, waxy texture. I started using Soolantra by itself. The first month was awful. A lot of blackheads and small red bumps. I went to my dermo, and she told me to apply Soolantra OD at night and Rozex OD in the morning. My skin continued to be terrible for about 3 months. And then all of a sudden, it cleared up. I also have acne, so once in a while, I'll get some cysts, but nothing like before (I get these around the time I begin to menstruate). However, I also gave up drinking alcohol in January, and this perhaps also helped. Well, the combination of not drinking and using these creams twice a day has really worked very well. I still have redness, but nothing like before. And my skin feels so soft."

For Rosacea "I loved it very much in the beginning. Saw improvements within 1 week, which is weird for me after so many failed meds. However, not sure why. About 6 months into it, I'm starting to see more bumps, redness, and itch again. I still wear it daily, but it's been 1 month with symptoms back, and it's not helping anymore. I'm gonna give it a few more weeks to see if I’m not discussing with my doctor. I hope it works again as well as it did for so long. It actually disappeared. My insurance covered it just fine, $60 copay."

For Rosacea "After seeing a dermatologist regarding my face flare-ups, I have rosacea. I’m 37 and have started Soolantra and Oratane. OMG!! My face after night 1 of cream has had a massive flare-up and looks terrible, too embarrassed to go out. I have been reading people’s reviews on here to stick with it for the long haul. I just hope it settles, it's itchy, white pus, and redness all over. Don’t realize how bad the bugs are."
