Only good impressions, the blessing was necessary to be treated all time, but it is long, from a psoriasis. The plaques disappeared rather slowly, but remission after this lasts for a year and a half, which is rare in psoriasmics.

Review of the visitor mashun, moved to the required section:
I personally am very wary of hormonal ointments, Elok certainly helps, but it is not yet known what disorders can be caused by interference in the hormonal background. By the way I noticed addiction to him ((I much prefer Skin-cap, the main thing is that he really helps, healed in the winter and nothing else became inflamed, besides completely non-hormonal ointment.At least I'm not afraid to use it.

In my childhood, according to the parents, there was atopic dermatitis, by the 2-year passed and did not make itself felt. I do not know what they treated there, probably with zinc ointment. And now by the age of 30 again appeared. At first I could not understand what was on the powder for hand washing, I bought a new one. Ointment zinc did not help ((the cream is also different, although the powder immediately ceased to use.) I stumbled on Skin Cap quite accidentally at a friend at a party, gave anointing, the next day I bought myself. As a result, after 1.5 weeks the dermatitis was completely gone.

Seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp I treated with aerosol and Skin-cap shampoo. Treatment was not very fast, but the result is good, especially if you take into account that these drugs do not contain hormones in their composition. After recovery, I used Skin-cap shampoo for a while for prophylaxis.

Complete garbage, not the drug. Have registered from dandruff on a head (seborrheic dermatitis) in the form of shampoo. Well, I washed my head, even bought two packages. And that ... The result is only one - spent money for a medicine that did not help. As a result, when he caught pneumonia, he was treated with antibiotics in the hospital, then the dandruff was gone, the dermatologist said that this was the case with antibiotics. Although before this almost to the hormones came. Such doctors and such medicines.

I have been suffering from psoriasis for already 5 years. Apparently, I belong to the "summer form", tk. in summer the skin condition is really very much improved under the influence of the sun. I also use Skin Cap spray to protect against irritation and inflammation (they are from the sun). In remission I remain up to 3-4 months. This is the result for us!

Skin-cap helped me with psoriasis. I've been tormenting them since my childhood, I was surrounded by a lot of doctors. I tried herbal infusions, ointments, hormones. Later, my wife consulted a friend of a dermatologist from a good clinic and this doctor scolded us for the use of hormones. Lately, many consider it almost a panacea. But this is a big mistake. So this doctor advised us to use a skin-drop aerosol, describing it as an effective and non-hormonal drug. And, you know, she was right.I bought an aerosol and started using it. A positive result was not long in coming. I'm saving them now.

Now generally hormonal ointments and creams a dime a dozen. With psoriasis skin-cap and the truth is a good way out of the situation, the truth is not a pretty penny, but it helps a lot. And the cork will remove, and the itching will take off. At the same time absolutely safe and non-hormonal medicine.

Enough already to shove your advertising. I told you that your drug is on the blacklist. He has no more confidence. Periodicity of publications, the same type of reviews - tired of cleaning out. I have already removed so many of your messages from the gentlemen advertisers, no longer be posted here. Thank you

Advertising is everywhere. There are reviews from ordinary people ?! By shampoo. It helps when you wash your head regularly. As soon as you stop to wash, everything climbs back! So for two years already, taking into account the fact that he costs about a thousand, and my own for two years, he spent about 20,000 rubles, the result is not particularly pleased. I would like to get rid of these hardships at all, and not all my life to wash my hair with shampoo apiece ...

I have a common psoriasis since I was 20 years old. Now to me 53. 2 weeks used an aerosol skin cap on arms or hand and legs or foots in the morning and in the evening. During this time, there was a reduced pressure - instead of the usual 135-140 at 80-90, there were 105-110 at 65-70. After the drug was canceled - the money ran out - the pressure returned, the heart ached for two days and joints ached, then everything returned to normal. External manifestations of psoriasis decreased by 50-60 percent, small plaques on hands disappeared. The result in principle is satisfied. Troubling pobochka. Already after the application I read about the response of the heat shock, very alarmed. Especially since the sensation after application that the skin is dried from the inside, it feels like the thin upper layer just died. Strange feelings, not as from hormones, but as if not very happy. Above the skin is "lifeless". Someone from doctors of dermatologists in general our health interests? I can not advise, but if someone will apply - just not on large areas of the skin.

Imports - "Detention of all the products of the company Cheminova: Skin-Cap lotion, cream, shampoo."
The problem is "The products of this manufacturer may contain a non-declared strong corticosteroid (clobetasol propionate) at therapeutic doses, despite the fact that the active substance is indicated as zinc pyrithione."

Reason - In Skin-Cap, a drug without prescription for use in psoriasis, FDA analyzes, therapeutic doses of a corticosteroid (clobetasol propionate) have been discovered, which can cause serious side effects if used improperly. The user does not know about the content of the hormonal component, which is not listed on the label. Side effects of prolonged use of strong external hormonal drugs may include thinning of the skin, vasodilation, marks from stretch marks. The use of large amounts of, excessive or prolonged use of strong external hormonal drugs can also cause more serious side effects. "

All this, indicates that the drugs have not been studied sufficiently, and their effect on the human body has not yet been determined.The decision on their application can be made only by you!

Marina KulikovaFor a long time this information can not be concealed. Therefore, the manufacturer of the Skin Cap drug will allow the inspection of its productions by specialists or the OTC market will be closed first in the United States and then in other countries, and the medicine will be given on prescription, like other hormonal preparations.

The drug is very helpful in the occurrence of atopic dermatitis. But the action is very similar to the effect of hormonal drugs. It's a mystery to me why the composition has not been studied in detail. Personally, I did not find it in the US at the pharmacy. This worries me very much. Maybe the truth is there hormones, and then it's worth using is very limited.

admin, when it's hormonal were on prescription? For 2 years I've been buying all sorts of hormones without prescriptions elokomy / acrylma / diving and other nonsense.
In occasion of skin-cap, took on the test an aerosol of 35 grams, it was enough for 5 days (11 sprayings all vchg (a hair part of a head)). The effect is, the ecdysis has significantly decreased.We went straight peel the size of a large coin, and under the crusts a sticky liquid with blood (lymph). So for 5 days completely gone this wetting, peeling began to resemble large dandruff. The redness is dying.
I will heal and the main thing is that then the remission would be at least 3-4 months (it would be better of course 6-12 months and more =), but this is a dream), in case of such a remission it will be possible to spray the rest of the body (legs and back are affected).
The remedy is straightforward - expensive.
Tomorrow I'll go for a new balloon, but for 70 grams. To pass a 3-week course, you only need to head 2 large balloons (which is about 4000 rubles)
For the rest of the body I'm afraid to imagine how much it takes. But the main thing that would help! We'll find the money somehow. "

Andrei, Thank you for your feedback. At us yes, it is a lot of that without the prescription sell, though should under the prescription. And the same Elok is still a prescription, but we can buy it without a prescription. Correctly it would be in the case of the availability of a doctor who can prescribe a prescription, but while there is, then we have.

In my 28, I have been ill with psoriasis for more than 12 years. During all this time, that only did not smear, that only did not drink ((It's just a nightmare of some kind.) And how much money has been spent for all these years recourse The only thing I can say about the skin cap, but it helps, but for a while. I use it for probably more than a year, if you need to get rid of the psoriasis immediately, this is a good medicine. Only he comes back again and again)) I read reviews and I am surprised that someone 3-4 months does not get up (I'm certainly very happy for you). And very surprised that someone pobochki get out, you have to follow yourself, maybe there is something, and I do not even know)) Yes, of course, the price of a skin cap is not small ((

In America, do not believe that the skin cap is not hormonal.Most likely he is still hormonal, because such a rapid effect on the skin without hormones is weakly possible.

Artem, According to the officially declared composition SkinKap nonhormonal. Perhaps the US is sold on a different basis or with the addition of hormones, not the fact that it is the same drug. Specially looked compound substance of ointment according to the directory of active substances - zinc pyrithione. This is a non-hormonal component, containing zinc, oxygen and sulfur in the atomic composition and no indication of hormones.

I warn competing firms, in my Directory both advertising and anti-advertising of drugs are not welcome. If you have seen somewhere there stories about the fact that the drug Skin Cap hormonal, then discuss it on those sites where they found such a heresy. If the drug does contain hormones, then this is a discrepancy with the official instruction provided by the manufacturer, and the preparations, especially the imported ones, are constantly tested, so the probability of such a violation is minimal.

That's it, and then slept "storytellers." Itself has experienced the effect of skin-cap cream and I know for sure that it works well, but it does not cause any addiction or pimples. In general, I have never suffered from skin diseases, but dermatitis has got out as a reaction to something in food. It was not what it was, not that yet. Dined romantic at the restaurant called. Anyway. Between the fingers there were dots that itched and gradually became the size of a goosebump. Has thought, papillomas, and there is a dermatitis only. I was prescribed a lot of things, but that's how a caring agent for soothing the skin - skin-cap and only. Itching, irritation very quickly passed, and the pimples themselves resisted a couple of weeks, but also went away. In the restaurant, he does not even kick a foot, but the cream took note and everyone advise him, who gets allergic dermatitis.

I do not know the hormonal skin cap or not, but I know something that did not help me at all from seborrheic dermatitis on my face. It is expensive, but there's no sense. The doctor advised to smear longer, type at first the skin gets used, and then gives result.As a result, the tube was exhausted, the spots faded a little, but did not go to the end, then they appeared back. It is clear that something is broken in the digestion, but the skin cap did not give even a temporary effect.
