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.

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.

The lack of diagnostic care actually contributes to more serious conditions such as Cushing syndrome, adrenal insufficiency as well as endocrine and immune-system suppression. The dangers are very real. The epidemic is growing as the global statistic of modern new-age inflammatory auto-immune diseases continue to rise exponentially. These anti-inflammatory drugs were never meant to treat long-term chronic conditions and the medical world knew that from the start. But now the consequences can no longer be hidden away. This book opens the lid to that pandoras box.

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.

This book builds a foundation for the second book by the same author, Suhein Beck. SKIN Confessions dives deeper into the mysterious immune-system and how to re-set it naturally even after immuno-suppressants create an imbalance of power in the body.

The book, SKIN Confessions allows the reader a chance to finally listen to their skin confess everything that has bothered her for so many years. The voice of the book is told through a character named, Derma and she is the personification of angry skin. She is cynical, wise but with a potty-mouth to get her point across. She holds nothing back gossiping about the egos and personalities of her BFFs (Best Friends Forever) and all their internal drama of the immune system in action. She thinks very highly of herself as being your ultimate first-line of defense hero and this is her last chance to save humanity by saving your skin!

100 of ALL PROCEEDS from this book will go to the incredible INTERNATIONAL TOPICAL STEROID ADDICTION NETWORK, a non-profit organization that works tirelessly to raise awareness.

Thank you for your support!
