I was prescribed Faceclin A by my doctor, but it's not available in the market right now. I'm wondering if Faceclin AT could be a suitable alternative. Would it work the same way, or should I be concerned about any differences? Any advice would be really helpful!

Faceclin A and Faceclin AT are similar, but AT contains an additional ingredient, so using Faceclin AT might be acceptable,

I've been diagnosed with a fungal infection, and my doctor recommended I take TRFY 250. I'm breastfeeding my little one, so I'm really worried about the safety of this medication. I've read some reviews that say it's not safe for nursing moms. Should I be considering an alternative treatment? What would you suggest?

I've been dealing with this rash on both sides of my neck ever since summer started, and now there's a similar rash showing up in the crease of my right knee. They're kind of these small patches that have a bit of a white appearance. I've tried using hydrocortisone cream on the ones on my neck, but they haven't gone away. They don't really itch, but they look darker now and the texture feels different. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I've noticed that my face used to be quite fair, but now it's gradually getting darker. It's really worrying me and I'm not sure what to do. Can you suggest any medical treatments or advice for why my face keeps getting darker day by day?

A darkening face can be caused by various factors, including hormonal changes, sun exposure, or skin conditions like melasma; to address this issue, consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice, and potential medical treatments may include topical creams or serums containing ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or vitamin C to help lighten and even out your skin tone, as well as sun protection measures like broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and a hat to prevent further darkening.
