What Are The Side Effects Of Steroids And Mercury

Good Day! I have a little query regarding a skin condition. What can be the possible side effects of steroids and mercury, even after diluting it with other creams? The country in which I live, fair skin is considered beautiful while my natural brown is not. Help!

Hello,

Elemental and methylmercury are toxic to the central and peripheral nervous systems.

The inhalation of mercury vapour can produce harmful effects on the nervous, digestive and immune systems, lungs and kidneys.

Steroids cause side effects only when used for a period of long time.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi,
