Hello! I have a 3 year old that used to be on Elidel. She started on it at about 4 or 5 months of age. When she was almost 2, I called and asked for another refill and they informed me that kids under 2 should NOT use Elidel because it could cause cancer. Now, my doctor wants me to go back to using it and I am really nervous about it. My daughter is almost 3 now and her exczema is just awful right now. We are using a steroid cream for the next week and it has done alot just in the past 24 hours. But, I am really nervous about using the Elidel. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
