Guest guest Posted March 8, 2002 Report Share Posted March 8, 2002 I waited 8 months to see a consultant here in the UK. I went along to see if I could get to try protopic for my seb derm. The session lasted about 4 mins, in which she told me that protopic was only for atopic ezcema, and NOT for seb derm. She said they were under strict instructions to trial it on atopic ezcema only, nothing else. So it looks like I may never find out for myself whether it works or not. I told her that others had informed me it works for their seb derm , but to no avail. Just wondered what others views might be on this. Anyone esle in the UK get to try it? I understand that it is probably not helpful for rosacea, as that is a very different condition to seb derm in its causes. But I thought that treatement for one ezcema could well assist for another kind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
