I've been dealing with acne and got advice from a dermatologist to try isotroin 10mg. I think it helped a lot, but now I'm experiencing blurred vision. Is this something that can happen with isotroin, or could it just be a random coincidence?

Blurred vision as a side effect of isotretinoin (Accutane) is rare but possible, as it can cause eye problems like dryness, irritation, or even inflammatory conditions like uveitis; however, it's also possible that the blurred vision is coincidental or related to another underlying condition, so it's essential to consult your dermatologist or an ophthalmologist

I've been dealing with some red rashes and a bit of a fungal infection near my private areas. I read about using Onabet B cream, but I'm not exactly sure how long I should be applying it. Should I do it for 2 weeks or maybe extend it to 3? Would applying it twice a day be enough? Just want to make sure I'm doing it right to get rid of this quickly. What do you think?

Onabet-B cream is commonly used for fungal infections. For red rashes near the private parts, you should apply Onabet-B cream twice a day for a duration of 2 weeks. If the symptoms do not improve after 2 weeks, you can continue using it for an additional week for a total of 3 weeks.
