Elidel after Treatement

Elidel after Treatement

I was left with Rosacea after 48 weeks of treatement with Peg+Riba.
Only Elidel helps to reduce rosacea.
One doc told me that Elidel can harm the liver.
Anyone knows something about that ?
Can the usage of Elidel after treatement (I am UND 15 weeks post Tx) can cause any damage ?

Thank you.
Jack

I'm sorry Jack I don't know.  I was left with skin rashes too (eczema) but the doc gave me a topical cream which sort of helps.......I dont know about elidel but I would sure try and find out so I'm bumping this back to the top in case somebody else knows.

I take Elidel. If you doc isn't a liver specialist (hepatoloigst) I'd take that advice with a grain of salt. If in doubt, ask your treatment doc who hopefully is a hepatologist.

I have exzema (eczema), and use  Elidel. My hepa doesn't have any prob with that.

My Hepa said it can harm the liver.
One Derm told me it can cause cancer.
Another Derm who is a specialist witb Rosacea said that Elidel is an excellent medicine and can not cause any damage.

And this is the only therapy that really help me with the Rosacea.

So it is confusing.

I think Elidel is safe or I wouldn't take it. I also find Sodium Sulfacetamide 10% and Sulfur 5% lotion very effective.
