Decision time for those with eczema

January 26, 2006 (philly.com)

Last week the Food and Drug Administration ordered two of the most effective eczema drugs on the market, Elidel and Protopic, to carry a "black box warning," the most serious type of warning in prescription drugs. There have been reports of cancer in 78 patients since the drugs were first approved in 2000 and 2001. Animal tests have shown a cancer increase associated with the drugs, as well.

But steroids are the only other treatment available.

Cancer and Lymphoma Warnings on two Eczema Drugs

January 23rd, 2006 (bestsyndication.com)

The FDA found two common eczema drugs, Elidel Cream (pimecrolimus) and Protopic Ointment (tacrolimus), have a possible risk for skin cancer and lymphoma. New warning labels are being added to the boxes of these medications to warn patients.

There has not been a concrete direct link for causing cancer; however there have been 78 cancer reports to the FDA with patients that have used these drugs. The FDA’s Pediatric Drugs Advisory Committee wanted this warning put on packaging a year ago. This was followed a month later with the FDA issuing a Public Health Advisory letting physicians know of the possible risk.
