No I hadn't heard of it and yes I see what you mean about the cost! Which cream do you use?

Thanks

We got the GP to order us the Day cream, the night cream and the trinity soap and shampoo. We took the perscription to the chemist next door to the GP and then had to give them the phone number for Elena's nature and explain to them how to order it (as it is a little different from how they usually order things). Anyway, it has been great and really kept her eczema under control. We get a little flare up around her ankles at times, but she was so bad before. The hydrocortisone was just useless for us as well. It would clear some of it up, then when we stopped using it, it would just come back worse than before.

I've changed my mind about the cream - I think it does work well now as I had been using it every night just before I fell asleep, until last night I used the vaseline one instead and my hands were a lot drier this morning.

It stays on, even after a good hand washing with soap, whereas all the others wash off, even if they are still supposed to be working.

So I bought another 2 tubes today in Boots while it was 1/3 off - only massive boots sell it though, the smaller ones don't seem to and I have looked :roll:

Sounds interesting, I think we had it prescribed a long time ago for Nayan as a baby, but don't remember it doing anything.
Can anyone tell me the ingredients please - can't find anything much on the site - apart from oats :lol:

there are different creams available as it turns out I don't have the one raved about, but it works.

I did see Aveeno in the chemists under the A section, and that's not what I have as daily cream I think. Larger boots seem to have most of the range - will get my tube as and when I can stand up to list the contents!
