Elidel (pimecrolimus) for Eczema: Seems to be clearing up the skin pretty fast so far, but it does burn. Anyway, I can deal with that, as long as it clears up the skin.

Elidel (pimecrolimus) for Eczema: I am a 63 year old male who has been experiencing eczema on the face for close to a year now. I was prescribed Elidel and use it at least twice a day to keep the eczema in check. It doesn't go away completely, but does calm it down.

Elidel (pimecrolimus) for Eczema: I have been using Elidel for about two and a half years. I use it on my face because apparently it does not thin out the skin the way steroid ointments do. Elidel works great on my eyelids as long as I apply it twice a day. It works fairly well on my cheeks and forehead. I have not experienced any side effects while using Elidel.

Elidel (pimecrolimus) for Eczema: I have used this product and it did not work for me. My condition was later in life (24 years of age). I hope this helps.

Elidel (pimecrolimus) for Eczema: I have found that this medicine does clear up my eczema temporarily. However, I find that I have a lot of burning sensations around my face- specifically my eyes feel very very warm when I'm using it.

pimecrolimus for Atopic Dermatitis: Pimecrolimus seems to work but I have to use it twice a day which is okay. It burned for about the first 2 weeks (I have atopic dermatitis on my eyelids), but it does not burn any more.

pimecrolimus for Eczema: I use it for psoriasis and it works well on thinner skin...not so much on hands or elbows.
