ChadRR asked for the next best thing to Clobetasol.Key word was non-prescription.. I too am seeking the same.
I have no insurance nor money due to a layed off of work. My local doctors are NOT willing to help with out money for an office visit..

Hello,
Clobetasol is a high potency steroid which is used for many skin conditions. You can get your girlfriend prescribed other low potency steroids like hydrocortisone. Other high potency steroids like flucinonide also need to be prescribed and should be used with caution as steroids are notorious for causing skin fragility and thinning.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
