Over the last 12 days I have gradually been noticing more and more ’side effects’ it started mainly with the drying of the lips which has slowly got worse as they now peel and feel like I have a huge fish pout!!!! Then I noticed my joints hurting after horseriding, to the point where I felt like I had the flu and then over the last few days on top of the above I have got 3 new spots which are large and very red and sore and I itch all over, n particular my arms, neck/chest and head. I even noticed just a minute ago that I seem to have dandruff!! This is even more noticable on my very dark hair. Any suggestions for a good shampoo that will stop the itching and hopefully the dandruff????
I haven’t really had any dry skin on my face though and in fact my face doesn’t feel that dry at all which concerns me as I wonder if the drug is actually working in the right place!
Having seen some pics on here I might add one or two so that if my skin does improve - which I so hope it does! Then I can see the benefit of the drug and hopefully forget all about this little side effects!
If you have any tips on what to use on my head please let me know - I look like I have fleas the amount I am scratching!!!

I have now started using Neutrogena T/Gel Therapeutic Shampoo, which I bought from Tesco. It is specially for these symptoms. It has worked really really well, I also used Head and Shoulders for a bit before, but that didn’t do much, the Neutrogena stuff is fab tho. Hope that helps! x x
