What Tacrolimus ointment is

A non-steroid ointment that calms the overactive immune response in eczema. Because it doesn’t thin the skin, it’s often used on the face and eyelids.

What it’s for

Eczema, especially on the face and in skin folds, when steroids aren’t a good fit.

How it’s taken

A thin layer on the affected skin twice a day.

Good to know

It has a boxed warning: rare cases of cancer, such as lymphoma and skin cancer, have been reported, and long-term safety isn’t fully known. Burning at first is common. Limit sun and avoid tanning beds.
