Eczema cream

[MLM]

My baby has a bad case of eczema. I tried getting the legendary Dr. Heimlich cream but he stopped selling it. Anyone have any recommendations on what to use.

Thanks

akvas lavan אקווס לבן in Israel....
Also Elecom when it gets really bad (it is a cortisone cream but very low %)

a respectable doctor told me that the regulation in israel is a joke and to never use these creams they are loaded with steroids

I bring the Aveeno excema skin care products for some family friends every time I come. It works great on their kid.

Even in small amounts a few times?

Without a script... Our doc told us to take any hydrocortisone 1% or less.

From wikipedia
 

Cortisol, known more formally as hydrocortisone (INN, USAN, BAN), is a steroid hormone, more specifically a glucocorticoid, produced by the zona fasciculata of the adrenal gland

But let's say I use it only for a couple of days? My DR gave us a steroid cream today

Why does it need to be anonymous?

Same here but said max 5 days.

Also recommended Neosporin eczema, said 8 out of 10 patients say it helps (doesn't have antibiotics)

Eucerin is what I heard.

Having little real medical knowledge and just my info as a educated parent i'd say Cortizone is never good for a baby under normal circumstances, but as you say your child has bad eczema Id just consult with a doctor to confirm that it is ok to put on. (If its not that bad even if a Dr. would tell me I could, I still wouldn't. Cortizone goes into the skin and into the blood)

+100 Don't use the Israeli "Natural" creams that work wonders-they do, but its cuz they are LOADED with steroids.

Eczema can be painful and get infected if not treated, so sometimes cortizone is the lesser of two evils.

The dermatologist prescribed Desonide for my son, also a corticosteroid. Before that we were using Aquaphor on his legs before bed.

My husb also has and used every cream out there. The only ones that really help r the ones with cortisone so even if its supposedly natural it prob has cortisone in it.like the clear cream that was taken off shelves two yrs ago. Was like miracle magic til it was exposed as cortisone... Beware that cortisone is extremely addictive! When the body gets then it breaks out for more its a vicious cycle. When u stop cortisone it will break out bad at first to crave more and then will clear up a lot.  So if u can hold off that initial breakout that's worth it. Best is to drink tons of water and plain moisturizer.
