Question about Eurax cream

1 reply

Went to the chemist today as have an awful rash (not sure if heat rash or eczema flare up - I do have eczema but generally have it under control nowadays).

He suggested I try an anti histamine tablet daily along with eurax cream 2-3 times a day.

My question is, will the eurax bring down the rash, or should I be using another cream/moisturiser as well as eurax? Does eurax just stop itching or does it also help heal? I can't find much online and the tube doesn't say.

I know I should have asked the pharmasist earlier but I didn't think about it at the time! Will hopefully call them tomorrow when they open, but interested if anyone has used this before?

I’ve used eurax on the kids for chicken pox and insect bites/nettle stings. I think it just calms the inflammation and itching? Not sure about healing. Sorry I can’t be more help!
