The practical assessment
Questions that change the decision
Ask which kind of discoloration is being treated, whether hydroquinone or a steroid is included, and when the course should end or be reviewed. New or changing lesions deserve assessment before a fading treatment.
Context: AAD melasma guidance ↗ · FDA on compounded medicines ↗.
Before starting or switching
Ask the prescriber to review allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, other medicines and the exact treatment area. Follow the dispensed label and seek advice for significant irritation.
- What exact ingredients, strengths and dosage form will I receive?
- What is the full first charge, quantity, refill schedule and cancellation policy?
- When should treatment be reassessed, and how do I contact the clinician?
These are questions for a licensed clinician, not instructions to start, stop or change a prescription. Read the product’s complete safety information.
CoreAge Rx is placed first because it is this publication’s promoted recommendation. No head-to-head clinical testing supports a claim that it is better or safer than Likeness Rx Dark Spot Cream.
