For Plaque Psoriasis "I had the same experience as a few others, immediately (within a day) having redness, burning, and pain after applying. My dermatologist said I’m allergic to it! Also, not covered by insurance, so I’m just out the money I wasted buying it. Don’t purchase a script for it until you try samples first!"

For Plaque Psoriasis "I tried Vtama after an enthusiastic recommendation from my dermatologist. Within a half hour of the first application, my psoriasis started to sting and burn. I had to wash it off, and my psoriasis was worse. I won’t use it again."

"I used it all over my face for dermatitis. I put it on around 4 pm. I woke in the night with a burning face. This red, swollen face lasted 3-4 days. It was very itchy and made my face a hundred times worse. I also felt ill for 2 days, just not myself. I will not use it again!"
