This stuff really works quickly, and the results are dramatic. Rather expensive without insurance, but worth every penny. The only "side effect" I noticed was RELIEF!

This medicine helped my eczema a lot, however, it came with a very unfortunate side effect: stretch marks. I have them behind my left knee and on my thighs. I switched to another doctor and she gave me a new medicine. To this day, the stretch marks have not gone away and I'm not sure they ever will. It's really very unfortunate.

I was prescribed this medication because after surgery I developed atopic dermatitis on my feet. My dermatologist tried many medications and nothing helped for more then a few days. I saw my foot doctor and he prescribed this immediately. It took a few weeks to start working, but as long as I remember to use it now, I rarely ever have any itching on my feet. It's the only long term medication I've used that's done any good.

This Med takes forever to get any relief and/or results. I do not recommend this Med for long term treatment.

My Dermotologist has me using for only two weeks, but after two weeks, I've only seen a little improvement. Perhaps it takes more two weeks, Time will tell.

I used this medicine for severe eczema on my legs and stomach. At first I had great results with this medicine. It got rid of some major spots. I kept using it for my normal breakouts for a couple of years. I know have learned that it caused weight gain and stretch marks. I decided to go to a new doctor who said he would never let anyone take this medicine for more than six weeks! I might never get rid of these nasty stretch marks but since I stopped taking the med I have lost 15 pounds, without trying. I do not recommend taking this medicine for extended use. Anyone can have these side effects. Read More Read Less

More than once I have had an episode of contact dermatitis. I experience extreme intense itching, rednes, severe swelling, irritation with red raised bumps and welps on my arm. Using desoximetasone 0.25% cream is the only cream that works for me. I experience almost immediately relief and I continue to use it until there is no sign of the rash. I highly recommend this to anyone!!!!!

I have eczema on my legs, tried over the counter meds and they did not work. My doctor prescribed this medicine and I have been using it for a few weeks, hasn't been doing much. I have noticed that is has caused some skin discoloration, that the spots on my legs I have been rubbing it in have turned white, especially noticeable after a hot shower.

I had an undetermined skin condition on the back of my thigh. It started with an itchy bump that got raw, and infected (from scratching). This cream helped immediately, dried the oozing, and made itching and scales go away in only a couple of days. I was warned that it can cause thinning of the skin and not to use for a prolonged time though.

I was given this for a rash that showed up after I had my first child and it wouldn't go away. The day after I used this the rash was already clearing up some.

Both ears were itching, swelling and generally sore. Dr thought it was from hairspray. Nothing else would touch it except this drug

This is the ONLY topical medication that keeps my exzema under control. I see results in the first day.
