I'm dealing with some jock itch and picked up Lobate GM cream to help with it. I'm wondering if it's safe to use or should I stick with something like itch guard instead?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Lobate GM cream contains Clobetasol, Miconazole, and Neomycin. It is not typically recommended for jock itch as it contains a steroid which may worsen fungal infections. Itch guard cream, on the other hand, contains Clotrimazole which is effective against fungal infections like jock itch. I recommend using Itch guard cream for jock itch. Apply it twice daily for 2-4 weeks for best results.

View allCan I use Evion 400 on my face every night? I've heard it's an antioxidant and good for the skin, but I'm wondering if it's safe to do this regularly. Is there anything I should be worried about?
Evion 400 is a brand name for Vitamin E capsules. It can be beneficial for the skin as it is an antioxidant. You can puncture the capsule and apply the oil directly to your face overnight. However, it is recommended to do a patch test first to check for any allergic reactions. Apply a small amount on your inner arm and wait for 24 hours to see if there is any redness, itching, or irritation. If there is no reaction, you can apply it on your face daily.
