Sklice (ivermectin) for Head Lice "My daughter who has extremely long think hair kept getting head lice. I treated her 2 previous times the typical way. OTC meds washing scrubbing boiling brushes. But she kept getting them. The 3rd time was it!! I looked online and found sklice. It was hard to find as most pharmacies around me don't carry it. I drove in a snow storm 40 minutes away to get it!! I applied it and haven't had a problem since...that was 4 years ago!"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "Literature on Soolantra says its works for 80% of users. And for that 80% it is significantly more effective than other prescribed treatments. Fortunately I am part of the 80%. For me, truly great success and no side effects. (The same goes for my two brothers) On another site I gave a similar review, but my youngest brother said to add, "Soolantra works for him were everything else failed.""

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I am 57 and have had rosacea for many years, my father also had it. I have always had a face that went red easily, with alcohol, coffee, mild exercise etc but started getting a few pustules and small lumps on forehead cheeks after a few wines over 20 yrs ago. Not severe but enough to be noticed and to try varies antibiotic creams, tablets and laser with varying degrees of short term success. I couldn't even pluck the top of eyebrows without having an outbreak! My skin is generally good as minimal other issues growing up and rarely use any makeup. Obviously this cream has been just what I needed. 10 mths ago, after using it for a month sparingly for @3-4 weeks HAVE NOT HAD A SINGLE OUTBREAK!!! Where has this been all my life. I now just apply a little twice a week and still have a 1/3 of 30g tube left ! Hope u have type of rosacea that responds too "

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "Possibly Soolantra is only thing to properly clear my rosacea up. First 8 days were awful as my skin was red and crusting over. Day 9 all dried up , day 10 woke up to clearer skin. Day 11 and 12 redness subsiding. I'll never touch antibiotics again as it ruins your body. Use omega 3 with cold liver oil tablet, apple cider vinegar with mother (natural thing in it) plus antihistamine. Good luck to you all."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I took this on recommendation of my doctor & my rosacea had really cleared up after 15% mandelic acid serum since April 2018 & pretty much weaned myself off the antibiotics. Stopped dairy&sugar too stopped getting major red bumps& the mandelic acid really took the redness away but still had minor bump& slight redness. Took soolantra July 25 only once & had a bad feeling after reading things here. Had mild rosacea & mad at myself for not researching it first. It is now 3 weeks later& my face has major redness & cystic acne bumps with one between eyes that is painful to touch. Worked so hard to clear up skin & one applic of this stuff and I’m ruined. Once the mites die off in the third week will these bumps keep reoccurring after I stopped the medication? Or is this die off a one time thing once you stop? I had these mites under control & now I look worse than ever. Can someone please tell me if they stopped using it and what happened? I haven’t had bad rosacea like this in 5 years!"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I have had pretty bad rosacea all my life, which means redness AND those small red acne scar marks. It was mainly all over my cheeks. I've tried so much different creams and honestly half of them I wasn't consistent with because I was convinced nothing was ever going to help my face. I was prescribed Soolantra to see if it can help combat my redness and the acne marks. After the first night I used it, my face was flushed red and BURNING. After a couple of days, I didn't recognize my skin.. I had so much whiteheads, the texture was rough and I had red dots everywhere. I was honestly freaking out because my skin never was THAT bad. But I decided to read the reviews and I saw everyone saying that they had similar symptoms and to not give up, to stick by it because it DOES work. I somehow managed to stick to it and stay consistent and when I tell you my skin NEVER looked like this before.. I mean it. KEEP TAKING IT AND DONT GIVE UP!!!!!! IT IS WORTH IT!!!!"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "This stuff is amazing. It cleared up my skin after two weeks and now I use it only twice weekly for maintenance. I was previously treated with oral antibiotics which did nothing but upset my stomach, or other useless expensive creams. After reading the research on it made sense why it worked so well for me."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I would 100% recommend trying soolantra if you have rosacea. I’ve been using it once a day for about 2 months and my skin hasn’t looked this good in years! I have struggled with rosacea pimples for about 2 years and nothing had worked at all. Now, I haven’t had a single pustule! Even the little ones go away overnight. Definitely give it a try!"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "Ordered from online pharmacy as my Dr in the UK would not prescribe it. Having suffered with Rosacea for nearly 15 years using different treatments I was fed up and after research decided to treat myself based on demodex mite theory. I wash face with dove sensative soap and lukewarm water and after drying with paper towel apply a thin film to problem areas in may case cheeks and nose. Only been using 2 weeks and after a couple of initial flare ups in first 10 days (possible reaction to mite die off and associated bacteria) things definitely seem to be getting noticeably better so really pleased just hope it continues. I also changed my pillows and pillowcases I sleep on to help."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I'm 21 & I started getting rashes (pustules, acne-like) on my face about eight months ago. I didn't notice a worthwhile difference with Soolantra until week five. I used to put Soolantra over my entire face (despite only really being affected in the t-zone) but it didn't alleviate any redness in my cheeks so I stopped putting it everywhere. I got a 10% azeilac acid cream solution to substitute Rhofade (Rhofade made it worse), and it has very noticeably combatted the redness! I only put Soolantra on my t-zone now & sometimes skip areas if there are no issues. The key: use the tiniest amount- do not use Soolantra like lotion! I wash & lotion (lotion only non-Soolantra covered areas at night) in the morning after applying azeilac acid. I'm on week 7 now & despite eating a lot of spicy food yesterday, my skin looks clear. Do your research and don't let some of these expensive medications fool you. Soolantra definitely has the capacity to work. Good luck."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I've been on Soolantra for just under a week and I am now starting to see results. The pustules and redness on one side of my face has greatly diminished and the other side isn't far behind. My rosacea was really getting me down so I am thrilled that there is now something out there that can effectively treat this condition! :-)"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I was diagnosed with rosacea 15 years ago. It was well controlled for the last 10 but suddenly out of the blue about six months ago, I got a bad flareup. Dermatologist prescribed Soolantra. I've been using it twice per day for about a month. No effect whatsoever - positive or negative- on the redness or tiny bumps. To make matters worse, a tube of this useless stuff costs $700 because it's not covered by insurance. I know they say you should use it for 3 months so I'll continue using it and update this review later if anything changes."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I have been using Soolantra for 2 months and honestly it is the best thing I have tried so far. I had papulopustular rosacea (mostly on my cheeks) and now it is almost completely gone. The bumps were gone after roughly 1 month and now the redness is also more than 90% gone. I am just so happy I gave this a try. Also, one thing that you have to keep in mind: GIVE IT TIME. I did see progress from the beginning but also some occasional flare ups. Just stick with it. It's worth it!"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I'm 69 years old, have had episodes of Rosacea occasionally for 19 years. Metronidizole cream had only moderate effect. My doctor gave me a sample of Soolantra, and my skin cleared up in just a few days. I continue to have no symptoms after using up the sample tube, which I used very sparingly to make it last. The price is so high and my Part D plan doesn't cover it, so that's the down side."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I’m in my 5th week with Soolantra and not sure about the redness which won’t disappear. The bumps reduced and the skin is silky it is clear an improvement but I’m not sure if I’m getting worse instead of better. The redness is not uniform and I am afraid to cover it not to get an allergic reaction. My dermatologist said I should go on for the next 2 months with Soolantra but I am loosing my faith. "

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "In the 3 years of dealing with Rosacea, I found Soolantra after doing research weekly for the last year and this medication is the only thing that has worked! I’ve been on it for 8 weeks and my facial redness has stopped 100%!"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "Ok I have been using this product since Jan 15th 2018 everynight. I cannot tell you how much it has turned my world around! My skin looks 100% improved. I will continue to use it until my dr tells me to stop. It beats taking antibiotics for 3 years! My body is healing itself from all the antibiotics taken in the past. CRAZY! but please persist with this, it will help you too. Good luck :-)"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "The road to overcoming my Rosacea started with me taking ivermectin as prescribed. I also took oracea. The first dose of ivermectine seemed to clear up a little bit, the bumps and lesions that covered my face and the heat, but a few days before taking the second dose, it went back to how it was before. I took the second dose and it cleared up a little, but again went back to normal until I continued use of oracea and started applying topical soolantra with it. My Dr. recommended blending soolantra with CeraVe cream - use Am in the morning and mix Soolantra in with PM. Wash with CeraVe in-between applications so pores don't clog. 2 months later I'm practically back to normal. I'm a fair skinned red-head, 32 years old, and happy to have my face back, compared to its puffy, bumpy, leathery and hot mess that it was before taking ivermectin, soolantra, and oracea."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I have been using Soolantra for 6 days now. I have read the reviews and I am trying to hang in there but my outbreak is horrible. Don’t want to leave the house. I am experiencing burning, itching and tingling. My cheeks have bumps all over them with pustules and extreme dryness. It is sore to touch. I am trying to suck it up hoping that the reviews I have read are true and it will get better? Has anyone gone through this? I had mild rosacea so this horrible."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I've been suffering from rosacea since I turned 40. I'm now 55. I have constant break outs. I Have avoided sun and other triggers.Decided to try another Dermatologist she recommended Soolantra. I picked a tube after using discount card and insurance my fee $35.00. I would pay $300 it worked. Just after a few days my skin was clearing up . It works don't walk but run to your Dr. and get a tube of soolantra. The constant break outs were very upsetting. Now I feel much more confident !"

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "At first I thought Soolantra did not work, but that was only because I had another problem--due to my inhaler, which had given me a yeast infection on my face. I got worse and worse, then solved that problem, and began Soolantra again. It actually seems to make my skin look better on contact. There is such a difference that I use it in the morning or just before I go out, and people have noticed. I don't have an extreme case of rosacea, but the redness, large pores, itching and burning are responding to treatment. I only put it on the affected areas, to conserve it, and I had some samples, so that is why I estimate only $2.00 a month. With insurance, a tube is $60."

Sklice (ivermectin) for Head Lice "One of my kids had magical powers to attract lice every year since like clockwork. (Yay for us, don't be jealous.) So the first time I did the OTC kit, laundry, vacuuming the mattresses etc. A year later I did the same but didn't get all of the nits. Those buggers are hard to find! Then a mom friend told me how Sklice paralyzes the nits and they CAN'T HATCH, so if I missed some they couldn't hatch anyway. So YES after the one ten-minute treatment my kid still had nits in her hair, but they never hatched and I need picked them out as I found them without the anxiety of "what if I miss one?" Third time she got lice I went straight to pediatrician for Sklice and that took care of it."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "My friend told me about it and I asked the Dermatologist. He agreed that this was fabulous, but said it would take about 4 weeks. I believe it completely cleared my face in slightly less. I OCCASIONALLY get a pustule and I put it on and it is gone. I know this is expensive, $610 here, but worth it. I talked to the Pharmacist yesterday and they said Ivermectin is just as good $200, so I got it."

Soolantra (ivermectin) for Rosacea "I controlled my type 2 rosacea for several years with Finacea twice a day. Then I had a huge flare up that lasted a few months. My skin was dry/flaky yet oily with enlarged pores all at once, huge pimples, with moderate redness. I tried soolantra and I’m very happy with the results. I use soolantra at night and Finacea in the day. It took 3 months of consistent use—one week I’d be clear and smooth, the next week I’d have a huge flare up—but now my skin is clear and smooth. My flaky/dry/oily situation has cleared up. My doctor said it might not help with redness but it actually did. I found using a benzoyl peroxide 2.5% cream on top of soolantra when I had a flare up was good for the pimples. I’m staying on soolantra indefinitely because you don’t build up a resistance to it (like with antibiotics) and I have had no negative side effects."
