I'm wondering if the Ethiglo Glutathione pills, recommended by my dermatologist for pigmentation and skin lightening, are actually effective. Or should I consider using Glutone 1000 instead?

Glutathione pill (Ethiglo) along with vitamin C is commonly used for pigmentation issues. Ethiglo is effective in improving skin tone and reducing pigmentation. Based on your dermatologist's recommendation, you can start with Ethiglo for better results. The usual dosage for Ethiglo is 500mg once daily.

I'm experiencing this weird issue where the inside of my mouth, like my cheeks and gums, feels really rough and kind of like sandpaper. There's also this wrinkly texture going on. It's been happening on and off for about five months now. Any ideas on what's going on or what I should do about this?

You may be experiencing symptoms of dry mouth and oral mucositis. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try using Biotene Oral Balance Gel. Apply a small amount of the gel to the affected areas in your mouth 4-5 times a day, especially before bed. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. If the symptoms persist, consult with your dentist for further evaluation and management.

I'm currently on methotrexate, 10mg per week, for my condition, and now I've been prescribed Sotret for my acne. I'm a bit worried about whether it's safe to take both at the same time. Could there be any side effects or negative interactions I should be aware of?

And also use Clinsol gel for local application is advised for 3-6 weeks.

I'm dealing with scalp psoriasis and my dermatologist recommended I use Halox S lotion. I'm a bit confused about the right order of things. Should I be shampooing my hair before I put on the lotion, or is it better to shampoo after rinsing the lotion out?

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.
