  • This drug made me completely crazy. Massive waves of uncontrollable emotion, rage, anger, sorrow and grief, and all in about ten minutes. It's a terrible drug for side-effects.

  • in the year 2010 that's the best treatment medicine has to offer to alopecia areata affected people.... wigs caps and scarfs

  • There is also the risk of exogenous adrenal insufficiency. The patient and doctor should be on the alert for HPA Axis suppression. The symptoms are insidious and can easily be overlooked until the patient becomes very ill. Systemic affects of topical steroids are greater than originally thought and yet conventional wisdom has been slow to change regardless of the quantity of published studies on the subject.
