Melacare forte cream should not be used for more than 2-3 months and that too without the supervision of a doctor for fear of steroid related side effects like:
I would advice that you discontinue the cream right away.
Use a broad spectrum sunscreen, which offers both UVB and UVA protection throughout the day.
You can use a cream containing one or more of the following ingredients like kojic acid, glycolic acid, arbutin for a fairer complexion. They are safe for long term use as compared to melacare.
