Hi lybrate-user, the cream you mentioned is a steroid cream and it shouldn’t be used by an individual unless advised by a dermatologist for the skin concern. If you have taken this cream from over the counter without any recommendation for another concerns, I advise you to stop it immediately. Steroid has got few long term adverse effects if not used as per advise. I suggest you use a skin regenerating cream and a sunscreen for 5 to 7 days. Use a mild cleanser. If you don’t know what are the appropriate creams to use, please consult a dermatologist. Thank you.
