Crisaborole topical for Atopic Dermatitis "I can't remember the last time I cried before using Eucrisa. I now can point out the exact date. May 15, 2019. Today was the 5th application, and holy moly, my eyeballs had flames protruding from them for the last 10 minutes. I had some odd swelling, redness, and irritation on both eyelids and below the eye. I put Eucrisa on them and was happy that it alleviated the symptoms with little discomfort. Until today... My symptoms were raw, just like my flaming eyelids. This may be the source of the most pain I have experienced for 8 minutes. I closed my eyes, fanned with my hands, put a water bottle on them, and hoped it didn't blind me if it made its way down. It didn't, and I still have the gift of sight. Eucrisa is very effective but feels like hemorrhoids on your eyes (if this is where you are affected). The pain lets you know it is working. Again, the first 6 applications were tolerable. I paid $10 for this giant tube of flames with a coupon."

Crisaborole topical for Atopic Dermatitis "Eucrisa has made my eczema so much worse! I am presently taking sick days because I have eczema on my hands, work with my hands, and-because of the Eucrisa-my skin is horribly red, inflamed, and scaled, and I cannot do my job. Never again."

Crisaborole topical for Atopic Dermatitis "Used it for 3 days around my eyes since my Dr wanted me to stop using hydrocortisone. On the 3rd day, I woke up with extremely swollen and itchy eyes, which were still swollen and itchy when I went to bed later that night. It's almost like it triggered horrible eczema as well, which is what it was supposed to be treating. Thank goodness I have a sample and haven't filled my expensive prescription."

For Atopic Dermatitis "Please do not put this Ecruisa on your face!!! I have dermatitis on my eyelids and was given samples of this after my insurance would not cover 2 other creams. I applied it to my eyes and chin. At first it was okay, then it was horrible. The burning was so bad I ran to the sink while wailing and washed it off immediately. My eyelid then swelled and I could barely see for the rest of the day. Please do not use this on your face!!"
