My dermatologist prescribed Carac for me yesterday to begin using on my lips. I am going to begin using it on Thursday night. It is the .05% and I am to use it at bedtime every night. I have a follow up appoinment scheduled for two weeks from now. I thought that would be the end of using the cream, but after finding these forums realized that would be the half way point.
I am very scared of what the cream is going to do to my lips. I have read about all of the irritation and discomfort caused on other areas, and the lips seem so much more sensitive. Does anyone have any experience using the Carac on their lips?
To make all of this worse, I am starting a new job in a hospital tomorrow. I work in a small office now, so I wouldn't have to worry about strange looks wondering what is wrong with me... but I am sure that will be different at my new job.
