Hi I have been diagnosed with rosacea. The doctor prescribed me Soolantra 10 mg and Elidel 10 mg.- both of which I have to use 2 times a day. Should you apply these creams simultaneously, or at intervals, or first one for a while and then the other? I ask because I went abroad and did not ask the doctor during the visit. Please reply, thank you *

To @Andrzej: This is not advisable. Removal - scraping dry lesions carries the risk of skin superinfections, can cause inflammation and the formation of scars and discolorations. It is better not to interfere with the healing process of the skin. It can only gently wash these places, e.g. with boiled water.
- after using these creams throughout the day, can I, for example, in the evening, remove the dried exfoliating epidermis and wash the sick place with water - before the next lubrication?
thank you very much for your reply.

These drugs can be applied, for example, at 15-30 minute intervals, e.g. first Elidel and in 30 minutes Soolantra. However, since these drugs do not interact with each other in clinically significant ways, it will also be a mistake if you apply them simultaneously.
