has anyone used elocon cream for eczema?

the dermatologist prescribed this cream and told us only to use it once a week on the bad patches. we are using propaderm 10% with 90% white soft paraffin mix for his skin too twice a day.

I have been prescribed it for myself. A few years back I had a very nasty skin rash (I don't suffer from eczema) that seemed to be resistant to all the normal hydrocortisone creams and the GP gave me this - it was very thick and sort of oily but it did the trick very quickly!

DS (10) has this for flare ups behind his knees. It is very good.
