I have had excema most of my life and until recently never had a very good luck in docters. I have never heard of the pill for excema and i am 36 and on the pill, been on it for aprox 12 years. It certanilly doesn't work for that. My docter perscribes westcort cortazone cream for me. I have to purchase a powder at the pharmacy called domoboro. Mix it in a clean mason jar (pint) and three times a day take a white paper towel (bounty) and soak it in the solution, slightly squeeze it out and make compresses for my hands letting it soak on my hands for a half and hour. It changes the ph of the skin, then i apply the westcort cream, NOT OINTMENT. and put on white cotten gloves for a while. I have to wear white cotten gloves any time I vacume, rake leaves, cut the grass. Any time that you have a stimulas, such as vibration, or chemicals. My docter also recomends tanning, I know that it sounds strange but it really does help, especially in the dry winter months. Good luck!!!!
