Depending on how old your daughter is, you may want to start with Elocon and once it is cleared up, switch to a non-steroid cream like Elidel. The steroid creams are so effective but no good for ongoing use especially on youngsters.

If you need any other info, let me know

Ya, my dr asked me if I wanted to try the Elidel, but I've heard they just put a cancer warning on it, so I said no. Especially since my daughter is only 1. I will ask my dr about Elocon at her next check-up! Thanks!! I just ordered this cream from Australia & got it yesterday, so we'll see if it works!

Do you recommend any good lotions or soaps? Right now I use Cetaphil soap & lotion & Aquaphyllic lotion on her.
