Side Effects for Lotrisone (betamethasone dipropionate; clotrimazole)
Amazing, Great! It’s really effective immediately. I tried different combinations of steroids and antifungal creams for a full week bf being prescribed Lotrisone. Amazing, see and feel a marked difference already!!!
It started to burn, so I stopped after the 6th day. Burned for 6 more days. Turned red and raw. Now, it burns off and on every day.
Hate this drug do not use. Gynecologist gave it to me. Put on my vulva and now the skin is thin and burns. Do not use this cream.
HORRIBLE MEDICATION!A doctor prescribed this to me for a jock itch infection. I followed up with him a few times and he kept prescribing it telling me it was working. It caused skin atrophy, i have stretch marks, and worst of all I have a constant burning sensation and my skin gets very red. It has been 4 months since I stopped and have not had any improvement. DO NOT PUT STEROIDS ON YOUR GENITALS, YOU WILL REGRET IT.
Any doctor who is going to prescribe lotrisone to a guy to put on his genitals should stop and think about what you are really doing to that person.
this cream was for a vaginal yeast infection, it was an alternative to monistat and vagisil cuz they BURN, but this one did NOTHING. my yeast infection continued to grow and get worse. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND WASTING MONEY ON IT
My husband has also been prescribed this medication and we cannot find it loacally. The doctor does not want to use the generic, feeling that this product is more effective.I found it cured my problem very well. My husband has been to 2 other doctors who prescribed medications that did not work. He is using the remains of my tube and has already gotten relief. None of the pharmacies in Keene, NH have this medication. It takes a month to get it ordered.

I have not taken Flonase for 20 months, yet when I sneeze 3 or 4 times in a row, I can taste it - the steroids have a dramatic affect on sleep, hair loss and confusion. I have stopped taking it - November 23, 2009 Barrie Ontario
When taken orally: upset stomach, tachycardia, unable to sleep. When applied topically: drowsy, sinus congestion, headache
Appetite increase not happy, no energy tired all the time
dry mouth (mild), numbness, strange feelings (emotions seemed to be more out of control), vision problems (photophobia, dim vision, dry eyes, itchy eyes), dry itchy skin. nausea, headache, diarrhea, felt like I couldnt pee...The WORST symptom was the dry nose. The inside of my left nostril was so dry that I ended up with a gigantic sore inside it. I ended up having to go to the doctor for that. (he told me to use small amounts of neosporin in my nose for a few days. if it doesnt work, I've got another (argh!) antibiotic to take for that)
Extreme bloating. Headache. Hard to focus on daily tasks. Dry mouth. Muscle aches. Grogginess.Calming. Does make me fall asleep faster. Still wake up in middle of the night but I am able to go back to sleep again. Cons outweigh the pros, will try it out for a few more days.
Itching, bad vaginal odor, minimal improvement.
Extreme anxiety part caused by SSRI
