I'm really struggling with a fungal infection right now and could use some help. Could you recommend any antifungal creams that might work well for this? Would love to hear some specific names to look into.

Can you tell me if it's okay to take tretino iso 10 mg every other day to help with my sensitive skin? I'm really hoping it will make my skin smoother and reduce pores. Does this sound like the right treatment for me?

Tretino iso 10 mg contains isotretinoin, which is commonly used to treat severe acne. It can help in reducing acne lesions and improving skin texture. However, it may cause skin dryness and sensitivity, especially in individuals with sensitive skin. Taking it on alternate days as prescribed by your doctor can help minimize side effects while still providing benefits for your skin. It may take some time to see noticeable improvements, but it can help in achieving smoother and poreless skin over time. Remember to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and avoid excessive sun exposure while using isotretinoin.

If my skin's wet, the sunburn gets really bad and blisters start forming. I'm worried about this and would love your advice on what medication I might need. What can I do to help with this?

Can anyone tell me if Tugain 5 or Tugain 10 is better for hair loss and regrowth? I'm also curious about which one might have fewer side effects.

-For hair loss, **Tugain 5%** is generally preferred as it is effective with fewer side effects compared to **Tugain 10%**. Higher concentrations may cause more irritation, so start with the 5% version unless advised otherwise by your doctor.
