    Definitely the most effective of the topical steroids I've used. Most effective when dispensed directly to plaques and left in place until foam breaks down and absorbs (20-30 minutes). In my case this product was used in conjunction with X-Trac laser treatments. Published: November 22, 2007 ::

    It is so easy to use and works like a charm. It releaves the itch and heals quickly. Published: October 25, 2007 ::

    I've had itching and flaking in my ears for 15 years. It got so bad I could't put the phone to my ears. Olux-E stopped the itching and cleared up 80% of it within a week of taking it. I still need to use it two day in a row every two weeks. I read some reviews that a side effect is adult acne. I have had some acne, and I didn't know why. So, thank you for your comments.

    I have had ezcema on my hands for years and this definitely is the only product that has worked. However, after a couple months of use, I developed adult acne and unwanted facial hair and it is terrible. I have stopped using the OLUX for about a month now and the acne still has not gone away. I guess it takes some time to get the medication out of my system. I never had acne as a teenager and to start having it as an adult is so embarrassing! So, beware of that side effect.

    My dermatologist prescribed this for me for folliculitis on my legs. After the first application the intense itching went away. The product is very expensive ($220 retail), fortunately I have a prescription drug plan and my doc gave me a rebate card to get $25 off so the cost to me was only $25. Published: April 30, 2009 ::
