For Atopic Dermatitis "I am experiencing eczema or atopic dermatitis on my hands and eyelids. This is recent, just started this year. I’ve have also had one on back of my lower scalp since 2004. I’m older 58 years old now. But like I said just this year have had issues with my hands and eyelids. Eyelids are bothering me the most. My dermatologist recommended Eucrisa for both my hands after I used a steroid on them plus for my eyelids. She also prescribed Eletone for my eyelids to use first. Eletone has parabens and I’m allergic to them. So hasn’t worked well. I went ahead and tried Eucrisa which fortunately my insurance accepted. I still need to use more but so far so good. I was worried initially as it does sting and burn like hot sauce. But that only lasts about 10-15 mins. I read up on it and seems to a normal reaction and not an issue. My eyelids are feeling must better. Hopefully inflammation will go away too. Says it can take up to 30 days. I’m going to give it a go!"

For Atopic Dermatitis "I have been dealing with eczema on my face for about 5 years now. Nothing worked until Eucrisa, and boy did it work! It was really hard to believe how quickly it worked for me. Hydrocortisone only took away about 70% of the signs and symptoms. Elidel - maybe 90%. Eucrisa completely cleared it up! Yes, it burns, especially on my eyelids. In the beginning it burns a lot! But after my skin healed up, it quit burning. Now I hardly notice it. It is only painful for me if my skin is raw. I've been using it now for about 2 months and my eczema is GONE."

For Atopic Dermatitis "THE WORST THING EVER! I would never recommend this to anyone. It made my symptoms so much worse and even spread across my face. It BURNED, ITCHES, STINGS, and literally feels like my eyelids are on fire. Will never try this again."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I have been using Eucrisa for 2 years, but I am giving up on it. I stopped using it on my face a month ago. Eucrisa seems to do nothing. My face is actually better off without using it. I was blending it in with my moisturizer to use on my face and neck every day, but a few hours afterwards my face and neck were always getting very red. I am less red overall when I don't use it. It didn't burn much at all, but it doesn't work."

For Atopic Dermatitis "Ever since I was 9 I have had very extreme eczema, and I mean REALLY bad. I was born with light brown skin, but as I grew older my arms, and neck got darker and dry. When I used steroid ointment my cracked skin would clear up for a couple of months but soon it would be back to square 1. I just recently been prescribed Eucrisa by my allergy doctor. Every time I use it my skin would burn like crazy. I don't think I'll ever use this again."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I have a combination of chronic allergic hives (source unknown to this day) and eczema. I was in true misery for months with completely broken, red, hot, insanely itchy, burning skin before an allergist prescribed me Eucrisa. Within 20 minutes of my first use, my severely irritated skin felt calm enough to put clothing over. It’s the first and only product that worked for me to fade the rash and heal the broken skin, too. (Probably because it allowed me to stop scratching and let it heal.) Before I found Eucrisa I was relying on steroid injections because oral weren’t touching the issue. So thankful I found this product."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I have had horrible psoriasis for over 5 years on my hands. I have tried every steroid cream to no avail. The psoriasis covered the palms of both of my hands and was very painful with constant fissures. Within 1 day of using eucrisa there was a noticeable difference. I have now been using it for a week and I feel like a new person. I have experienced no stinging or pain and the results are a miracle. This is the first time I have seen any improvement with a treatment for my psoriasis."

For Atopic Dermatitis "Today is the first time I am using it, the first time I put it on my face thick like I used to do with triamcinolone but that stung so bad I had to run and wash it off. After reading these reviews I decided to give it another shot but this time I applied the thinnest layer possible and it didn't sting at all, so I'm happy so far."

For Atopic Dermatitis "My doctor put me on Eucrisa for a month and my dermatitis pretty much went away on day 3. I have been using it for 33 days and I asked the pharmacist why you can only use 30 days? She told me you have to take a week or so off cause it stops working after 30 days."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I've had Eczema my whole life and NOTHING has worked like Eucrisa. I get Eczema really bad on and around my mouth so my Dr. gave me some sample tubes. Yes, it does burn for the first few applications or if I miss a few days of using it. The only reason it burns is because the skin is raw or broken. The more you use Eucrisa, the less it burns."

For Atopic Dermatitis "This cream 2% did not work me at all. The cost of this cream is $75 insurance won’t cover it. This is totally useless cream after using it for 6 months. I wonder how they got FDA approval. FDA should investigate what people says about this useless cream. Dermatologist get monetary benefits from this company? I believe so."

For Atopic Dermatitis "My Granddaughter was prescribed this she is a 3 years old. She has used steroid cream for a couple of years so the dermo wanted to try her on something else. This medication made her eczema worst and also that poor baby screamed bloody murder every night that I applied this meaning for a month straight. I wouldn't pay $5 for this medication, much less want anyone to endure such pain after paying out $1,000 for the medicine."

For Atopic Dermatitis "This medication is worthless . I had severe ezcema on my neck and inner arm. I applied generously and within seconds burning got worse and worse. Was almost in tears. Had to take off immediately . I would never use this again or put on a child or baby. Painful burning and itching . I’d rate this product a -10 if I could. So far it’s going in the garbage . I hope no one uses it."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I started using this 3 days ago for what I have been told is eczema on my face. The first time I used it my face got itchy beyond belief. I was actually looking forward to a sensation other than being itchy all the time. The sensation of burning, stinging sounded good for a change. I guess it's too soon to really rate it, but so far my skin is smooth but it still itches."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I tried this for a small patch or eczema on my face. It felt okay at first so I later put it all over my face. Next morning I woke up with my face burning and hives all over. It was awful! It then lead to months on end of contact dermatitis and near a year later I still am dealing with some mild skin issues. "

For Atopic Dermatitis "Have eczema on the palms of my hands. Eucrisa works well. My doctor recommended using it for 3 months. After a few days I developed a rash on the topside of my hands. It looked like poison ivy. And it would not go away until I stopped Eucrisa. The eczema on my palms came back within a few days after stopping Eucrisa."

For Atopic Dermatitis "Does not work. I've had eczema for 45 years. Had great success with Synlar when it was made by original company for 20 years. Once sold the formula changed I guess and it stopped working. Been using Cloderm for 3 years successfully. Dermatologist gave me samples if Eucrisa a week ago. It does not burn. My eczema itches non stop and a week later and is spreading. I will go back to Cloderm."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I have had a painful inflammatory skin condition on my face for 8 years now that had been diagnosed as shingles, adult acne, or dermatitis herpatiform. No one was sure what it was. The condition was painful, bled frequently, was swollen, had a burning sensation and left scars as the lesions healed. My doctor got some samples of Eucrisa and gave one to me to try. The result has been nothing short of amazing. Within 24 hrs. of the first application the lesions have begun to heal- the swelling, redness, and pain have been greatly reduced. Previously I had used antibiotics and every kind of ointment available to no avail. The only thing I noticed was a burning sensation when it was applied which went away in about a half hour on the first application. It did not burn with subsequent applications. This is nothing short of a miracle."

For Atopic Dermatitis "Over the past 30-60 days using eucrisa on my face (mild eczema) and upper back (notalgia paresthetica). Itching decreased noticably within a couple weeks, the moderate burning subsided and disappeared after two weeks, and the scaly patch on my forehead has disappeared but I continue to have some scaly skin at brow patch. All positive. Now for the negative-could be coincidence but have noticed some welty, itchy bumps lately where i apply to my back. But my gut is telling me there is a relationship. I wonder if the intense burning with application is from applying too much. Just a thought from somebody who has had long-term mild eczema."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I’ve had eczema on my face for about 11 years now, Doctor prescribed steroids creams and pills which had it’s drawbacks. So they decided to give me Eucrisa, and in all honesty it helped. It stings a lot on even just the smallest cuts from light scratching, but it helps. Try to mix it with Vaseline to dilute it (stinging), and to help moisturize your skin. It sucks to have eczema especially on the face because its exposed to constant environmental change. So it flares up the most for me during weather changes."

For Atopic Dermatitis "I was born with eczema, so I’ve been trying things for 23 years. When prescribed Eucrisa I was excited to think a non steroid cream may help. But this cream is the greasiest and feels like ACID is being poured on my face I’ve never felt such excruciating pain in my life ( and in the past I’ve literally had my skin scraped off with a scalpel for samples) I couldn’t handle it. It dried my skin out and left me greasy as can be. Not worth it"

For Atopic Dermatitis "My daughter was prescribed this medication for very dry, red patches on her face. After a few days of use her face was covered with acne and she felt burning and rawness on her face. Her face became even more red than it was initially! Once she stopped using the ointment it calmed down. We won’t be using this anymore. Back to the drawing board ☹️"

For Atopic Dermatitis "It does almost nothing to help my severe total body eczema. I blend it in with vanicream moisturizer. It burns a little bit briefly on the face, but at least Eucrisa is better than nothing at all. It's mostly something to use on days when I must take a break from using steroids."
