Protopic ointment issue for medical students / doctors dermis? I use Protopic ointment for my skin, and there is problem, then I should not use it daily, but should change the other cream and then I use Protopic again.
I am giving myself the benefits, or should I use it daily without interruption?
I prefer to use it daily without breaks it is very good for the ointment ezcema.
Protopic is a strong immunosuppressant, and its use for long periods of time can have systemic effects, your body may have difficulty fighting infections, and you'll get sick more easily.
Protopic is indicated "for the treatment of short-term and non-continuous chronic moderate to severe atopic dermatitis in non-immunocompromised adults and children who have not responded adequately to other topical prescription treatments for atopic dermatitis, or when these treatments are not recommended.
How did you tell your doctor use? It should not be used every day forever, you'll need to take long breaks. It is very good for eczema, but you can not use it too often.
