Ketoconazole for Seborrhic Dermatitis, for use on face?

mercredi 23 septembre 2015

I have seb derm, I previously used topical corticosteroids to keep the inflammation under control. Since, TCS cause a bunch of side-effects, I gave them up altogether. I have tiny hair growth on the area(area around nose) treated with steroids. Abnormal hair growth is a known side effect of steroids. They aren't noticeable though.

I have used Ketoconazole once or twice, it's onset of action is slow compared to TCS, but it does help to reduce scaling and redness. Now, abnormal hair growth is not listed as a side-effect of Ketoconazole, but I have heard, people have used Nizoral Shampoo on scalp to treat baldness.

Now, I am worried, whether I should be using Nizoral Cream on face, I already have tiny hairs on that area, I am worried it might stimulate more hair growth.

Anyone, tried Nizoral for seb derm, can help me out here?
