STEROIDS FOR ECZEMA AND SKIN

Coming off Topical Steroids

So, starting with babies the creams may be hydrocortisone 0.5/0.1%. The initially dry itchy skin, may then become more evident in the creases and even seem wetter and oozing and spreading. It's often systemic by this time and there will be frequent GP trips or phone calls and still no resolution. The steroid creams do not cure but they may soothe but the eczema returns. Eczema is often an immune system disorder.

It can run in families, be accompanied by allergies and symptoms of a lowered immune system; lots of coughs, colds and even hay fever for example.

Steroids suppress and do not resolve back to clear skin. They may help, but the issues return, often worse.

Homeopathic medicines are processed naturally from animal, vegetable, and mineral sources in controlled pharmacies, a process that renders them safe and naturally non- toxic. Safe alongside prescribed conventional medicines they gently steer health.

The skin is the largest organ of the body so internal imbalance will be expressed here in order to protect the more important delicate and inaccessible organs.

We are all different. Homeopathy is not like orthodox medicine and approaches health differently. It is an individual approach. Its medicines (termed remedies to differentiate from a drug that will have side effects,) trigger the body to heal. Over time, the creams are often increased in potency.

Immune modulators such as Dupixent may follow.

A full consultation and a thorough up to date health history, will begin my prescribing journey and this is every three months generally. I am available for support and advice in between follow ups.
