I stopped my topical prescription cream and switched to Kalme products and my skin is even worse

We would never recommend that you stop any prescription medication in favour of our products. However if you have already decided to do this and you are experiencing worse symptoms this could be due to your skin reacting to coming off your prescription cream. This is very common and symptoms can get sometimes get significantly worse for a period, especially if you have been taking them for some time. People can go on develop a condition called 'red skin syndrome' after stopping prescription creams, where by their skin is very red and inflamed and sometimes it can even blister. 


If you are experiencing worse symptoms after coming off medication, we recommend you see your doctor for advice.
