Consult your dermatologist. Eczema is not a single disease but rather a group of affections sharing some common grounds. Tratment should be tailored to suit your own needs. Also most 'real' medications are prescription drugs, anyway. Last but not least, there is a wide range of other skin disorders that may resemble eczema; yet another reason why it should be treated by a professional in order not to confuse it with something else.

I'm not sure there's one treatment that cures all. I started off going to my GP & he recommended a steroid-based corticosteroid cream, which did ease the redness for about a week but then it flared up again. I then looked into safer alternatives, various creams, emollients (non-cosmetic moisturizers), vitamins (fish oils), some were better than others but same result, ease the redness but then flares up again...maybe short-term placebo effects. I honestly think our bodies became accustomed to the various treatments & they don't get to the heart of the problem, in this case eliminating Eczema for good. I think you need to focus on the root cause of eczema, rather than the symptoms. A guide & book can be found here: http://www.skinhealth.reads.it/ ... it worked for me. You also need to be careful washing with normal soaps or using bubble baths, they can be extremely drying & can irritate the skin if you suffer from Eczema. Hope this helps, good luck.

Creams & medications won't cure Eczema, only reduce the inflammation & itching. If you see a dermatologist & they can tailor a treatment plan for you.
