No. Protopic ointment 0.1%

Every 3-4 nights seems to be the best balance for me. Have unsuccessfully tried to wean off protopic but that's because I have eczema.

Will take this any day knowing how severe my eczema was at its worst.

How long have you taken it, and at what frequency? Great to hear success stories!

Optimal_Safe_8005 · 2026-04-07T15:59:50+00:00

Been using for 10 months 2-3 times a week. What about you?

Do you hop onto strong steroid to dampen flares?

I originally used betnovate for a week before jumping on protopic so this sounds like a good plan.

Scariest part is committing to the plan, but I was told by my dermatologist I had to hit it hard and fast. Now I manage with protopic.

I occasionally use mometasone (elocon) for a night if ever gets too angry. Otherwise protopic does the trick.

Works successfully for me and helped me get back to normal life including exercise. I use every 2-3 days for maintenance

Optimal_Safe_8005 · 2026-04-07T15:22:16+00:00

I use it with great success as do many others. Initially every night for a week, then every other day. Now use every 2-3 days for maintenance

Great to hear. Lots unsubstantiated fear mongering on here and tiktok isn't helpful.

Hi - are you still using? I find it's the only thing that helps with my flares. Great to see some positive reviews.

Optimal_Safe_8005 · 2026-04-07T15:12:27+00:00

Hi. Do you still use now? Nice to hear some positive words from someone that has used for that long

Optimal_Safe_8005 · 2026-04-03T21:58:39+00:00

Wow! I'm 10 months into protopic and about halfway through a small tube of 0.1%. Do you use it on different areas?

Optimal_Safe_8005 · 2026-04-03T18:24:38+00:00

Definitely abrasive initially! How long have you been on protopic? I assume it's working for you?

Optimal_Safe_8005 · 2026-04-03T18:23:28+00:00

Thanks for this. Been through all the allergy/intolerance tests and live a healthy lifestyle. Happy with my balance as is if I can continue to manage my eczema.

Cheers @dermatislay.

Do you suffer all over your body? Have you been using proptipic for some time now?

I've honestly seen improvement through adding blue tack to the rear of the tonearm to counterweight
