I have used Ovus cream on my son who has eczema, but with no help. Im currently using Bioderma on him and it does shows improvement.

Sourcing, I am also using Biderma. Can I ask which are you using? There are apparently two types for babies: (1) Atoderm in emollient form (in toothpaste packaging) $260 and (2) Atoderm (too) but in pump packaging $220. Do you use one or both?

Glee,
can i have the contact details for neocate? also, when did you notice a difference in your son's condition after taking neocate? and did you notice anything different in his poo? thought i would look into this as well...thanks.

Mummybee - where do you get Pepti-Junior? I couldn't find it in the supermarkets or at Mannings...thanks.

YKY, you can only get from Mannings that have a Pharmacy section. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough in my last post. I used to buy mine from the Mannings next to H & M, Central, and it is located on the shelf in front of the Pharmacy counter (do ask pharmacist). Pink can with teddy bear at side, $73 for one can.

apologies for delay in responding - we were away. We get Neocate direct from the HK distributor. Speak to a Ms Lo (mobile: 8103 3329, office:2827 1616).

For all those who use skin prick tests, our allergist only conducts blood tests since it's simpler on a young child and just as accurate. It's quicker and whilst there is pain and suffering involved, it's only a short period. We would have no ability to hold a toddler still for skin pricks and we only do them once a year, not every 6 months since it depends on the results and shld not be done as a matter of course.

perhaps you could ask your doctors about the RAST tests?

It's difficult to say what exactly is the catalyst for the ezcema going away (ezcema cream, drugs or diet) since we started them all at the same time when we change our PD. hope this helps
