Elidel Cream 15g

Elidel Cream 15gm containing pimecrolimus 1% — a non-steroidal topical calcineurin inhibitor for mild to moderate atopic dermatitis and eczema in adults and children aged 2 years and above.

Suitable for everyday use as part of a otc (over the counter) routine.

• Elidel Cream 15Gm is a prescription topical calcineurin inhibitor cream containing pimecrolimus 1%, indicated for the short-term and intermittent long-term treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (eczema) in patients where conventional therapies have failed or are not appropriate.

• Pimecrolimus selectively inhibits T-lymphocyte activation and prevents the release of inflammatory cytokines, thereby reducing the immune-mediated skin inflammation characteristic of atopic dermatitis.

• Unlike topical corticosteroids, Elidel does not cause skin thinning (atrophy), making it a valuable non-steroidal alternative for sensitive or delicate areas such as the face, neck, eyelids, and skin folds where long-term steroid use carries risks.

• Elidel is particularly beneficial for patients who require intermittent therapy to maintain skin control and prevent flare-ups.

• It provides effective anti-inflammatory relief while preserving the normal integrity of the skin barrier.

• The 15gm tube offers a convenient supply for treating localised areas of the body.

How to Use:

• Apply to clean skin or hair as directed, avoiding contact with eyes
