For Atopic Dermatitis "If you're a masochist, this med's for you! Holy hell-fire in a tube, Batman. What makes a skin condition even worse? This medicine. I couldn't tell you whether or not this prescribed torture in a tube worked because I discontinued it after 2 applications. I've never encountered a medicine that makes me want to punch people in the face as much as this stuff did. You want others to experience the agony along with you. My doctor did advise refrigerating it to help with the 'discomfort.' Yeah, lies, all lies. I wasn't aware Pfizer was outsourcing the manufacturing of this cream from a fire pit!"

For Atopic Dermatitis "I have severe eczema. Prednisone or tacrolimus will clear me up, but steroid topical medications only help a little. I was excited to hear about a new treatment. The tube cost 80.00 after insurance. I didn't notice any pain or discomfort, but I didn't notice any positive effect either. It did nothing for my itch. I decided to try it on one leg with triamcinolone ointment on the other. The triamcinolone worked noticeably better. I did not refill my prescription."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I had tried everything for my itching, burning eczema on my eyelids and underneath/around my eyes. Elidel felt like fire to the point I could not use it in that area, and my doctor advised me not to use any hydrocortisone on my face due to skin thinning. My new allergist prescribed Eucrisa, and it is a game changer for me. As long as I don't get it in my eyes, it does not burn. Sometimes my eyelashes pick up a little bit of the ointment and it migrates into my eyes. That is quite uncomfortable, but overall, it is a godsend and the ONLY thing, short of oral prednisone, that I have ever used that works! It might not work for everyone (see other reviews) but for me, it works wonders, and it works fast."

For Atopic Dermatitis "Eucrisa has helped the eczema on my face quite a bit, but it's so greasy that it's uncomfortable and has made my acne much worse. It would be great if they made a lotion version."
