Re: Lamprene
I have taken just about everything under the sun for this condition. Oral prednisone/steroids, topical steroids of all types, protopic, antifungals, antifungals w/steroids. I have also taken
Antibiotics topically and orally. All of these I have taken for well over the time prescribed just to make sure. Many, many alternative treatments, supplements, and topicals. Just got back from allergy testing today, all negative. Food trials/
Elimination Diets . Contact dermatitis elimination trials. Nothing conventional has turned up anything promising. The only thing left for me besides dangerous big gun drugs is alternative medicine, which by the way has been the most helpful. I know there are alot of us that don't want to hear it. It's only "alternative medicine" to us because it's not western medicine. Eating healthy, exercising, staying positive, and avoiding toxins. That's the way I'm doing it right now.
The main side effect of Lamprene is that you change color (orange/brown/black), and that's one of the most common side effects. No thank you. I am white so I think people might notice that. =)
Waiting for this stuff in the mail called "Jujube Fruit Powder". It's a chinese date and it's supposed to be a great curative. Read on it. Great for dry skin and stomach stuff. Also allergies and immune system issues.
Read on it -
