Anyone use Soolantra for Rosacea? Side Effects

I have pretty mild Rosacea. My doctor prescribed Soolantra cream for it. From what I've read online there are very minimal side effects- skin irritation, burning and that's it. 

 

When I use it for a period of time, after 4 or 5 days, I have fatigue. Not go to bed kind of fatigue, but more fatigue than usual. I can't figure out a cause for it other than the Soolantra. When I stop using it, the fatigue tapers off.

 

I see my dermatologist in May and will ask him about it and I've very recently had lots of blood work for something else and all that looked fine. 

 

Just checking to see if anyone else has any sort of "issues" using Soolantra. 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Re: Anyone use Soolantra for Rosacea? Side Effects

I would suggest you call your pharmacist....he may be able to tell you the side effects of this medication. Also make sure you are using to much. I too have a slight case of Rosacea. My problem is not redness, I have 2 vey light spots on my hight cheek bones, but my face can burn something awful....you can feel the heat if you touch my face. I am about to start an antibioctic lotion. When I talked to my Pharmacist he suggested to apply it with a q-tip only on the areas that are acting up. 

HTH!
