A member asked:

I have been using lacticare 2.5 lotion for 5 years once in a week because of my skin allergy.what are the risks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lacticare Side Effec: Most emollients can be used safely and effectively with no side effects. However, if redness, irritation or itching occur or continue, notify your doctor or pharmacist. Inform your doctor if the condition for which lacticare was prescribed does not improve after a few days. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
