I hadn't ever heard of the epitrex; however, I did take a look at the product on line. I read the product ingredient and am encouraged by those I was familiar with, (like ginseng, ginko biloba, and the echinacea. It seems that they have both a capsule formulation and a topical formulation. I would go for the topical formulation and do test patch on a small area of the eczema effected skin. Maybe they can send you a sample packet of the solution. Another natural eczema cream is called NaturalDerm Skin Rash Cream. You can take a look at this natural alternative at the following website: http://www.multistrength.com. I've actually spoken over the phone with the new manufacturers of the product. They are the parent's of an eczema child and took over the manufacturing of the product because they believed in its benefits. I don't have personal experience with the product; and therefore, can't personally vouch for its effectiveness. However, I am aware of the benefits of the natural ingredients listed in the product; and for that reason, this particular product is worth investigating further. Check out the website and give the owners a call for further inquiry.
