"Using mometasone steroid cream once a day after showering before I went to bed was the best solution to my eczema every time it got bad. I used to always struggle with eczema and hydrocortisone never worked! If you are in a similar scenario, this one is a stronger steriod"

Elocon (mometasone) "I wish I'd have understood the side effects BEFORE I started using this ointment in my late teens. At first, it was a miracle as it acts very fast. DO NOT USE IT LONG TERM. The doctor didn't tell me this & after years of [heavy] use- it caused thinning & irreparable skin stretch marks & delicate skin. When you try to get off it (in my personal experience) it's as if your body cannot be OK without it. Even though your skin may look eczema-free, when you think you can stop using, after just a few short days, the eczema reappears & the cycle of chasing eczema with Elocon begins. Getting completely off it IS a complete nightmare & support is best sought from a natural doctor who will prescribe natural alternatives to help heal your system & not just mask a problem from an aesthetic view-point. I went through 'red-skin syndrome' or TSW (topical steroid withdrawal) & even on my melanated skin- I looked like an inflamed, weeping, crusting, cherry. Avoid."

"Was prescribed this ointment by my GP after I suffered several bald spots on my scalp. I have no idea why they appeared as was not under stress at the time. After about a week of using Elocon the hair started to grow back, the only thing being that it grew white. I have brown hair. After about 6-8 weeks the hair grew through with my natural colour. Couldn't be more pleased. Thought I may have to shave the lot off, but 6 years on, still no reoccurrence but kept a tube just incase."

"My 3 year old son suffers from eczema! It is one of the worst cases his doctor has seen. He scratches till it bleeds. It's behind his legs, between his fingers, bends of his arms. He has been using this cream for about 3 days only. As of now it is helping but not cleared up completely!"

"I’ve used mometasone for about 7-8 years and it has helped my skin tremendously. I’ve had moderate to severe eczema since the age of 6. I’ve tried all types of different creams and medicines to help heal and keep my skin under control. This medicine by far is the best! It comes as a cream & an ointment, it doesn’t sting or leave a strong odor, however, the cream does leave a bit of a trace especially when applied to dry skin. I use dove sensitive skin body wash, either aveeno skin relief moisturizing lotion and mometasone and my skin is generally pretty clear. I would definitely recommend a try!"

"Mometasone is a life-changer. Before this medication I was constantly feeling like ants were crawling on my scalp and I had loads of scabs from the itching. The itching would be so bad I’d have to take showers mid-day to relieve the itch. This medication eliminated that itch almost immediately. I put a few drops on my scalp right after a showre and I don’t notice itching anymore. The scabs mainly went away in the 1st week and don’t seem to be returning. Wish I’d started this med sooner!"
