Get checked....: ...By your doctor for illness that can cause dry skin--mainly hypothyroidism--rule that out as a cause. Try using a vaporizer where you sleep. Shower in warm, not hot water. What are you taking 2 anti fungal drugs for? Could they be having some effect on your skin? See a dermatologist if necessary.

Try: Amlacton12%.Setomes you have to ask the pharmacist for it. Your skin has a fatty layer the other creams can't get through. Only an acid can. That's why this moisturizer works so well because it gets deep into the layers of the skin and does not just sit on the top.
