I'm on itraconazole 200mg daily for about a month now, and I've started losing more hair than usual. Could this be a side effect of the medication? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate any insights.

I'm dealing with really sensitive skin and got a tan from being in the sea. Do you know any good creams or treatments that could help? I tried a carbon facial, but now my skin feels crazy dry, even though it used to be oily. Any advice on how to fix this?

For your sensitive and tanned skin, you can try using a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream to reduce inflammation and redness. Additionally, you can use a moisturizer containing Aloe Vera or Calamine lotion to soothe your skin and keep it hydrated. To address the dryness caused by the carbon facial, you can switch to a gentle, hydrating cleanser and use a non-comedogenic moisturizer like Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream. Make sure to apply sunscreen with at least SPF 30 before going out in the sun to prevent further damage.

Psorolin B ointment is advised for local application, also take tab allegra 120 mg orally for 2 weeks, if any side-effects dermatologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm worried because I've been using Melacare for the last four years, and now my face has become really oily. I'm planning to stop using it, but I'm not sure what to do. Melacare hasn't given me any allergies, but I want to reduce the oiliness. Could you suggest how I can stop this oily production on my face?

you cannot stop it abruptly, wean it off slowly in two weeks by applying alternate days for a week and two days once in a week and soo,for alternate suggestion visit your dermatologist for appropriate treatment.
