<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi, Since posting my summary regarding the gf status of Elocon, I received the additional information from one of the people using clobetasol propionate to treat his DH. "That is true, but that stuff is very strong. Use sparingly and not longer than 2 weeks without taking a 2 week break. When I used it on and off, it controls the itch but eventually (6 mos to 1 yr) it caused my skin to tear off very easily. Best to find the offending gluten or dairy source causing the problem and eliminate that. My 1st dermatologist "treated" me for 2.5 years. I didn't try the clobetasol propionate till after about 1 year or so. They do warn you about using it. And I did follow their instructions. It really controls the itch but at a price." Have a great day, Amy *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the CELIAC List*
