Condition worsening

[Fred]

Thanks for the responses, as recommended I had a look through the acetretin posts and found the side effects similar to mine, so thanks for that.

My Derm has suggested I also go back to using the topical oinments, (Dovabet) alongside the acetretin, which I will follow, but on reading posts on the site (I will get some work done today, I promise) there seems to be a lot of love for the use of coconut oil, but should this be used in addition to dovabet or instead. I should imagine dovabet is fairly impenetrable where coconut oil is concerned, maybe use coconut oil 1st?

Thanks again and hope the questions are not too daft!

No question is too daft. We do have some daft members (Grizzly Bear is a good example   ) but you just ask questions, no one will knock you for your questions. If they do, let me or a forum helper know and it will stop.

Dovobet should only be used for 4 weeks. I'm not sure about mixing it with Coconut Oil, maybe you could use Dovobet in the evening and Coconut Oil in the morning. I'm a big fan of coconut oil but it's a moisturiser and not a treatment like Dovobet. You can read more about both in these threads.

Dovobet And Dovonex (What's the difference ?)
