Finding treatment shouldn’t be. Get proven prescription relief online, without a visit to the dermatologist’s office.
Doctors don't know exactly what causes eczema, but it can be hereditary or caused by a combination of factors such as environment or allergic reactions. The bad news is: there’s no cure for eczema. The good news is: there are many treatments that can help manage symptoms.
To treat and control eczema, a combination of medications is often needed. We offer a wide variety of both preventive and acute treatments specific to your eczema needs. All medications are FDA-approved.
Topical corticosteroids are medications that you apply directly on your skin to reduce redness, itchiness, and rash. While there are varying levels of topical corticosteroids, a low to medium potency corticosteroid can be used daily as a preventive treatment.
A medium to low potency topical corticosteroid can be effective to reduce redness, itchiness, and rash.
In most cases, your eczema flares up and you need an acute treatment for immediate relief. It’s helpful to have these treatments on-hand. We offer several types of acute treatments for eczema - consult with your Alpha provider to determine the most effective treatment for you.
A high to very high potency topical corticosteroid can be highly effective to reduce redness, itchiness, and rash.
Another type of medication that is often prescribed for eczema is a calcineurin inhibitor, which acts on the immune system to reduce skin inflammation.
Occasionally, you might experience a skin infection and require antibiotics.
Prescription strength medications can offer long-lasting relief.
