I've been hearing a lot about oral glutathione tablets with Vitamin C for skin whitening, and I'm curious if they really work. Are there any solid clinical studies backing this up? Have you seen any noticeable results in your patients who use these oral glutathione supplements? There are so many expensive products out there, and I'd love to get some insights before making a purchase decision.

There are no proven studies to say that oral glutathione causes skin whitening. But there are patients who have taken it, and have noticed a difference. But that's not same with everyone. There are various lasers and peels available to enhance your skin color by one or two shades. Along with the procedures, vitamin C serum is definitely helpful, not only for pigmentation, but also for skin rejuvenation and as an anti aging cream.

View allI've been using Doxycycline 100mg, deriva bpo gel, and saslic ds face wash as part of my skincare routine for about 15 days now, just like my dermatologist suggested, and they want me to continue for another 15 days. But I've noticed my face is getting darker, especially around the eyes, which I think could be hyperpigmentation from the deriva bpo. Even though my doctor saw the pictures and thinks I should keep going, I'm really worried about this change. What should I do?

Can I put betanovate gm cream on my genital area? My scrotum and penis are itching really bad. I tried setrabate after an online doctor recommended it, but the itching hasn't stopped. The doctor also suggested betanovate gm or hhzole, but the pharmacist said betanovate gm is better. I'm also using candidforce 100, which helps with the itch, but when I stop, the itching comes back, and it makes me feel like cutting things off. Any advice on what I should do?
Continue all the medications, hhzole cream for local application for 2-3 weeks, tab canditral 100mg once daily for 3 weeks and tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days after food.

I'm really confused and a bit concerned about something that's been happening lately. Almost every night, I wake up with this persistent itching in my feet and the palms of my hands. It's been happening after I take a shower and moisturize. What could be causing this? Could my shower habits or the moisturizer be triggering it somehow? I'm just not sure what's going on. Any ideas?
Itching in the feet and palms of the hands, especially at night, can be due to a condition called eczema. I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream on the affected areas before bedtime. Additionally, taking an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg at night can help alleviate the itching. Make sure to continue moisturizing regularly and avoid any potential triggers that may worsen the itching.
