Hi,

You did not mention the purpose of using this medicament. Prolonged use of skinlite cream is not advisable.

Skinlite is commonly prescribed on a short term basis for the treatment of skin pigmentation due to pimple scars or infection of the skin.

It contains a potent steroid, so if you continue to use it for a long period of time it may result in thinning of the skin, telangiectasia (red spots on the skin), abnormal facial hair growth and increased risk of infections.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
