Comment:
For the past 3 years I've been plagued by painful dry, cracked fingers. I'm 72 years old and I tried the over the counter hand creams. None worked. My dermatologist suggested I try EpiCeram and was able to get me a prescription for about $20 after insurance. I've been using it for 9 months and it's been a godsend. I highly recommend it.

Comment:
My local Rite Aid Pharmacy quoted me $6,000.00 for a tube of Epicerum! Is this the way for the mail order company to be able to fill the prescription for only $20.00? Something is very fishy.

Comment:
I have eczema on my eyelids. This has been the most effective treatment to date and helped me break my dependence on cortisone. I get it through a specialty pharmacy and they provide a very reasonable price.

Comment:
I have atopic dermatitis on my face and eyelids. As soon as I put this on I felt relief. My eye lids and under eyes were crepy and dried out with using cortisone cream and after a few applications it really helped.

My dermatologist prescribed epiceram after a laser treatment and it was great. It was pleasant and easy to use, and felt soothing on my face. I found that it really helped my sensitive skin heal much faster.
