The only ointment with a sterdy available without a prescription is hydrocortisone. For example, Maxicortan, which you can order or book at the pharmacy of your choice. Link below: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/97167/maxicortan-krem/apteki Although it is available without a prescription - it should not be used for more than 2 weeks. However, it is a relatively weak potency preparation and often in the treatment of AD it is required to use stronger preparations. However, they are only available with a prescription. AD requires dermatological consultation and prescribing specific treatments by a doctor. It is he who determines, based on the condition of the patient's lesions, how often and what drugs to use. Unfortunately, the pharmacist does not have the ability to diagnose diseases.

Often, proper care of atopic skin allows you to reduce the amount of steroids used. Through our website you have the opportunity to order cosmetics at better prices (some pharmacies provide us with prices) to your home. Here are EMOTOPIC skin preparations - from lotions to cleansing emulsions. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/emotopic-emolientowe-preparaty-do-skory-suchej-i-atopowej
