I've got this persistent dry skin peeling just above my upper lip, and it's been quite annoying. I've tried using Cetaphil and some Vaseline petroleum jelly, but nothing's really working. Do you have any other suggestions or ideas on what might help? It's starting to worry me a bit.

I'm really worried about my hairline; it's receding and my hair is getting super thin. I went to see a doctor and he prescribed me Tricosilk Max 5, but I didnt notice any improvement, so I stopped seeing him. A while later, I started using Tricosilk again, but now that it's unavailable, I switched to Mintop 5. Is it okay to continue with this? Should I be doing something else?

Yes you can take it no problem,follow your doctors advice
