Eczema symptoms may come and go. Don't wait until they turn into a flare-up or an outbreak. Start using ELIDEL as directed by your doctor. Apply a thin layer of ELIDEL to the affected area(s), twice daily, at the first symptoms of an eczema flare. Stop using ELIDEL when all symptoms are gone. If your symptoms don't improve in 6 weeks, or if they get worse, see your doctor.
Some patients have described their first signs or symptoms (itch and rash) of a flare-up as:
Other things you should know when using ELIDEL:
 |
Use ELIDEL only to treat eczema that has been diagnosed by a doctor. |
 |
You can apply ELIDEL Cream on affected areas on all skin surfaces, including your face, head, and neck. Avoid contact with your eyes. |
 |
You can use moisturizers with ELIDEL. Because the skin of patients with eczema can be very dry, you should discuss good skin care practices with your doctor to keep your skin healthy and moisturized. If you use moisturizers, apply them after ELIDEL. |
 |
Do not cover the skin being treated with bandages, dressings or wraps. However, you can wear normal clothing. |
 |
Limit sun exposure during treatment, even when ELIDEL is not on your skin. |
 |
Do not bathe, shower or swim right after applying ELIDEL. This could wash off the cream. |
