Rosacea. What cream can I use on top of Metronidazole to reduce redness for few hours? During my office hours? (Photo)

Sada3456
I am having Rosacea from one month. It got little worse in last 4 days. I went to a Dermatologist and they recommended(FOR 2 Months) Doxycycline 100mg twice per day and Metronidazole topical cream 0.75% to use on cheeks and nose twice a day.. I used it for a day, but the cream doesn't reduce the redness. I had to go to work and it looks bad. 1. Is there any other cream that i should use on top of Metronidazole that will reduce redness at least for 8 hours of my work time? 2. Diet plan help? .
