For Eczema "I've been so interested to find out what others think about Elidel. I've been suffering with eczema all my life. I was recently given Elidel to try but I literally want to rip my skin off after I apply it. It makes my face so hot and painful! Such a pity because I know it's supposed to be great! Anyone else feel this?"

For Eczema "At first, I thought this stuff worked great for my eczema, but then I woke up to around 40 zits under my arm... (which is where I applied it to my eczema)... so disappointed... it hurts, and my rash looked better than these nasty zits everywhere... now it hurts to wear a bra..."

For Perioral Dermatitis "Prescribed to me for seborrheic dermatitis on my nose, eyebrows, and eyelids. Elidel made the inflammation worse for me and migrated into my eyes, causing a lot of itchiness, irritation, and pain. Cost with discount card given to me by my doctor was $100 for a 60 mg tube."

For Perioral Dermatitis "I had sore and dry skin around the mouth, it had a stinging/burning feeling for 1.5 weeks and was painful to even drink or open my mouth. I learned it’s perioral dermatitis, and the doctor recommended Elidel. My skin improved, and the dryness was gone on the 3rd day of application."
