NEW YORK (Reuters) -- The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is
warning all users of over-the-counter dandruff and psoriasis
treatments called "Skin-Cap" to immediately contact their health
care providers.
The products, imported from Spain, contain prescription-strength
corticosteroid drugs, which may pose a health hazard to many people.
As with any steroidal drug, abrupt withdrawal is ill-advised and you should
see a physician. This is not medical advice.
