"Losterin": instructions for use, description of the drug, analogues

Definition of symptoms

Today, along with development and progress, brings us various diseases. The growth of the Earth's population, unfavorable ecology, stress, hereditary predisposition, vitamin deficiency, improper metabolism, diseases of the gastrointestinal tract - this is just a small list of factors that can be sources of various pathological changes not only in internal organs, but also in the skin. And if we talk about the latter, of course, constant itching and redness of the skin causes a lot of trouble. What do consumers say about Losterin cream? The reviews are very positive. Almost all consumers received a positive therapeutic effect and improvement in their condition until complete recovery.

Often people are alarmed to discover such signs of trouble as peeling, keratinization in the form of fish scales (especially in winter), cracks and dry skin. It is advisable to always be attentive to yourself and your loved ones. And if you notice the above symptoms, you need to consult a doctor and get competent help. They will certainly carefully examine the patient. The final result will be the diagnosis of the disease and the prescription of medications, among which may be the drug “Losterin”. Analogs, including the well-known Naftaderm, have a similar effect. However, when purchasing, you need to carefully study the instructions and especially the composition, since with a percentage increase or decrease in any component, the overall effect of the drug on the causative agents of the disease will certainly change, and therefore the entire course of treatment of the disease.

Instructions for use

Each dosage form of the drug has its own recommendations for use:

1. Cream. Apply 2-3 times a day in a thin layer. The effectiveness will be noticeable only with regular use. The result of applying Losterin cream will be noticeable after just a few procedures. It will manifest itself in reducing the inflammatory process and relieving pain. Usually, the itching subsides first and the constant burning sensation disappears. However, if you stop treatment at this stage, all the symptoms of psoriasis will return immediately. To achieve an accurate result, it is necessary to use Losterin cream for 2 to 4 weeks;
2. Shampoo. Losterine is used in the same way as regular shampoo: applied to the scalp, foamed, left on for several minutes and rinsed off. The peculiarity of its use is that it must be applied very carefully so as not to injure the already inflamed area of ​​​​the skin. The drug in the form of shampoo is recommended to be used not only when plaques affect the scalp, but also the neck area, behind the ears. It is recommended to wash your hair with Losterin 2 to 3 times a week. If necessary, between procedures it is allowed to wash with regular shampoo, but not often;
3. Shower gel. Recommended for daily use. Apply to damp skin using gentle circular movements. Despite the fact that plaques affect only a certain area of ​​the skin, it is recommended to apply the product to the entire body, completely replacing the usual gel. The beneficial, nutritional effect of the gel will not be superfluous. Losterin has a soft structure and is therefore easily washed off. At the same time, part of the product leaves along with the water, eliminating all impurities from the skin, and part is absorbed;
4. Cream hand soap. Just like the shower gel, this form of Losterin is recommended for daily use. Apply the product to wet hands, covering the palms, wrists, and, if necessary, the entire arm up to the elbow. Cream hand soap can be used on an ongoing basis, since patients with psoriasis usually experience excessive dry skin. The product will not cause addiction, since it has a non-hormonal basis.

Indications for use of "Losterin"

The most important thing in the treatment of any disease is a correct diagnosis and, as a consequence, the cost of the treatment. It is curious that “Losterin” acts more sparingly than hormonal drugs. The price is also reasonable. Everything else is just a matter of technique, the desire to get better, great diligence and discipline. Patients call “Losterin” very effective for psoriasis. Patients who used this drug noted a noticeable improvement in their condition towards recovery and the disappearance of traces of this disease. It is known how disturbing psoriatic plaques cause during an exacerbation of the disease. Especially on the hands, in the elbow bend, around the fingers.

Diagnoses for the prescription and use of “Losterin” are the following:

• psoriasis;
• eczema;
• atopic dermatitis;
• seborrheic dermatitis;
• contact dermatitis;
• lichen planus;
• ichthyosis;
• xerosis.

Indications for use (psoriasis)

The main indication for the use of Losterin is psoriasis. Psoriasis is a skin disease that is chronic. It is non-infectious, but the exact causes of the disease are unknown. One of the most common theories of the occurrence of psoriasis is immunological, according to which the disease is provoked by malfunctions of the body’s immune system. Doctors also talk about genetic, metabolic, endocrine and other possible theories.

Losterin can eliminate the main manifestations of psoriasis. One of them is the formation of plaques, which are spots that protrude slightly above the level of the skin. Their appearance is accompanied by a strong inflammatory process, which does not stop until the plaque disappears. Inflammation manifests itself in severe itching, burning, and painful sensations around the area of ​​the rash.

The plaques become covered with a white crust, which begins to peel off over time. If psoriasis affects the scalp, then the scales are similar to regular dandruff, only they are larger. As for the areas of the body that are subject to rashes, they can be absolutely anything. Most often, plaques first appear on the knees, elbows, and head. If treatment is not started in time, the disease will progress, causing rashes on more and more new areas of the skin.

Losterin can be successfully used both during exacerbation of the disease and for its prevention. The duration of treatment depends on many factors: timely initiation of therapy, diet, taking other medications, etc. After treatment with Losterin has been successful, small spots that look like scars remain in areas of the skin where there were previously plaques. Their appearance is not accompanied by an inflammatory process, so there is no need to use Losterin, like any other remedy.

However, exacerbation of psoriasis is often systematic. For example, for many patients the irritant is the sun's rays. This form of psoriasis is called summer. If a person knows that with the arrival of summer he will have an exacerbation, he can take care of prevention in advance. Losterine can be an excellent remedy for this. Thus, another indication for the use of the drug is preventive measures to prevent exacerbation.

Positive features of shower gel

It is already commonplace to call the products from this cosmetic line free of all substances and toxic chemical compounds harmful to the body. And the peculiarity of the product in question is the presence of an ingredient such as jojoba oil. To be more precise, it is not oil. In fact, it is a special substance that looks like wax. The unusual nature of its action lies in its ability to slow down and stop unwanted oxidative processes. It can penetrate deeply into the pores, enveloping it in collagen-like substances, very carefully caring for and nourishing the skin. The result of use will be healthy nails, shiny hair and an inevitable healing effect.
