Mirvaso has been approved by the FDA.

This is the trial I am referring to: http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01885000

Thanks, that was news to me, and I see they have one in my city, Stockholm. I am not ready to be a Guinea Pig myself, especially after the results reported here.

I want to count my lucky stars, I nearly ended up taking part in the trial here in the UK! The UK is different to the US health system as it is more focused on efficiency and cost effectiveness, as the NHS is ultimately paying for the drug. Whereas in the US I may be totally wrong but I get the impression its more of a sales/marketing exercise.

If Mirvaso doesn't get approved for distribution on the NHS I will just see it as a sign that its not meant to be. However I strongly suspect that they will prescribe the drug as the doctors running the tests over here seem pretty sure of Mirvaso's effectiveness. I just hope that they get participants in the trials that truly reflect the diverse subtypes of Rosacea.

Any American who has had an adverse reaction should report it to the FDA. That is , once our government is opened for business. I've been waiting to recover fully from my last vbeam treatment and the medication is sitting in my kitchen. I'm getting more concerned about trying it as these reports come in.It's really sad when you can no longer trust the integrity of the FDA.

How strange is that - just googled Mirvaso after saying yesterday that it doesn't have the official Mirvaso website at the top of the results page and now its there - result number 1: www.mirvaso.com

I'm starting to believe what other people were saying about there being a Galderma presence on here!

Well said mate.


And the brass neck of some people on this forum

for having a go at me for stating the facts and telling the truth about Mirvaso

Mirvaso2013 I still don't know why you are still going on about this, you have said it won't work for anyone so why are you still commenting on it, why don't you put your time into trying to to find something that will work for you rather than trying to shatter the dreams of the many people that will still be willing to try this to better there lives when they can. You have no reason to be whining on about something that you have no knowledge or experience with, so leave this to the actual people that have tried it and let them share there experiences.

Why are you getting upset about what I say about Mirvaso ?

How much are they paying you ?

Because all I ever see is I told you so, and you have no experience with this yet talk like your an expert about it.

How much are they paying you? Grow up, if they want to pay me with free samples of mirvaso I will quite happily take it and then I can give you a true account of what it's like!

I Never once said I was expert.

So get your facts right . And stop crying about my posts which have

nothing got to do with you .

All I'm saying is leave it to people that have actually tried this and knows what there on about, it's not right to have someone like yourself who has no experience of this putting people of it, a lot of people have been waiting a long time for this to be released and pinned all there dreams on on it.

Well then take your anger out on Galderma

No point attacking me .Im not the bad guy here.

My posts are aimed directly at those who are responsible for Mirvaso

[wiry]

It is probably too early to be angry with Galderma. It seems the best thing to do would be focus on members and readers of the forum.

For anyone who wishes to try it, please report your results. But be very careful and go very slowly. Try it once and wait a few days to see how you react. Do not try it for weeks and set yourself up for a bad rebound.

Anyone who is putting their hopes and dreams on this is probably going to be dissapointed. To date, it does not appear we have a successful daily user. Lets give it some time and we may hear of a few that may be able to use it daily, as prescribed.

Cmon, that's not really fair.. Mirvaso2013 has been very excited about Mirvaso here for some time, and seems now pretty deflated about it. Plenty of posts from people saying to other readers that so far only a couple of people have tried it and to keep positive and to try it for themselves. You can't expect that when there have been what, 10+ posts or something from people having pretty bad rebound flaring, and one or two posts from people who are positive (and they are both first time posters and one adds steroids to the mix, I mean, please..), that nobody is allowed to express their pessimism or even sarcasm perhaps here. If you are afraid that such negative posts scare people off from trying, you basically chose censorship, and for what? The hope of being able to read from more people how they did on the meds? Just let everybody share their sentiments and nobody is attacking you for being hopeful about Mirvaso either, from what I remember? So.

Rebound flushing, feeling very down

image.jpgimage.jpgimage.jpg


First time posting here. I was diagnosed with rosacea about two years ago- biggest symptoms were moderate to severe flushing and some growing, persistent redness. Tried a few topicals and minocycline over the past year without too much improvement. Had one IPL with really good results- going back for another round and anticipating about three to four total. Was given two Mirvaso samples by the derm. I've included three photos; one of my face while on mirvaso for the first time and two of the horrible rebound flushing I've had. I used mirvaso for two days and then was in class the next day and bam! Started to flush more badly than I ever have before in my life, beyond deep red all the way into purple. So painful and intense that I had to leave class and it took two hours to start going down. Didn't reapply mirvaso but the next day around the same time had another huge flushing episode where I had to leave class, so deep purple. As I walked to my car people were staring and talking under their breath about it. Pictures of rebound flushing are from today- day 3 of flushing intensely at the same time with no trigger, just out of the blue. 2 1/2 hrs later still waiting for sw improvement. I feel extremely sad and frustrated, almost hopeless. Three days ago, before mirvaso and a few weeks after IPL, I was still red but feeling happy, optimistic and like rosacea wasn't that big of a deal. This flushing is debilitating; not sure what to do anymore. Just thought I would add my experience here.
