Guest guest Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 Yes, we have the straight fucidin as well for use as an antibiotic ointment, the fucicort cream is one step up with low dose cortisone added in for when it is turning nasty and nothing is working to clear it. The skin thinning is why I try to use the fucicort as seldom as possible, esp on the face, same deal with my younger son who has excema that flares up periodically. Last resort, but sometimes it is needed when inflamed. Hope it improves soon, ----- Original Message ----- > Hi > > Thanks for your thoughts.

So we'll see if we can rid of it. I'll let you know.
