About this series

Topical Steroid Side Effects is an easy Q & A format that explains the most common questions of what are topical steroids, the important role they play in medicine, how they affect the skin and their profound far-reaching effects into the body.

For over 65 years, doctors have emphasized their incredible benefits, yet neglected to disclose to their patients the truth and consequences of these powerful drugs that have been touted as completely innocent and harmless. 

 

The book's Introduction / foreword by world renown dermatologist, Dr. Koushik Lahiri elevates the urgency of this information to the public and international medical community. Dr. Lahiri has been in the forefront of publishing textbooks clarifying the latest studies on the detrimental effects of Topical Steroid prescriptions for chronic conditions. In fact, he helped change the parliamentary legislation on not allowing hydrocortisone to be sold over the counter in India. 

 

Beyond eczema and psoriasis is hidden another condition that is "iatrogenic" which means "caused by the medical treatment." A new phenomenon that has been buried away has recently been discovered and yet, denied by so many doctors.

Even after adverse effects to the drugs have been reported back to the FDA, they continue to be used, misused and abused.

Even when patients use topical steroids as prescribed by their doctors they can unknowingly develop an indescribable dependency on the drugs. 

The various names for the condition(s) are Topical Steroid Addiction, Topical Steroid Withdrawal, Red Skin Syndrome, Red Burning Skin Syndrome, and Steroid Induced Rosacea. In all cases, the body develops a dependency on the infinite and continued usage of the steroids. Any cessation will trigger the body in an excruciatingly painful flare-up that is far beyond any original eczema or psoriasis condition that can be debilitating for years! Meanwhile, the same doctors that deny the existence of this emerging condition, continue to prescribe even higher potency and dosage of the corticosteroids, both topically and orally. 

 

More importantly, this book attempts to help the reader become their own Patient Advocate. Armed with information, clinical studies, and many support resources, they can avoid the pitfalls and the love/hate relationship with steroids.

 

The author, Suhein Beck is the CEO/Founder of ELAJ Skincare Natural Products that help with complex skin conditions such as ECZEMA, PSORIASIS, ROSACEA, and other related dry-skin problems.
