Guest guest Posted February 20, 2002 Report Share Posted February 20, 2002 Florasone isn't for everyone, unfortunately (how many times have we all heard *that* one?!). I tried it for my moderate, pustule-papule-intensive rosacea and it broke me out *big* time --- two applications was all it took to make me flaming red and covered with dozens of p&p's. The active ingredient in Florasone is cardiospermum, which comes from an ornamental vine with a fruit that looks like Chinese lantern (but green instead of orange). I know more about its horticultural properties than I do about its medicinal properties, but it's possible I'm allergic to the plant, as I am to several others.
