I have periodic eczema conditon and have been using elocon cream for the last 10 yrs. is that ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be ok: It should be ok, if you used it periodically. However, have a dermatologist check out your skin as one of the side effects of prolonged topical use is thinning of the skin.
