Elidel Precautions

Do not cover the skin being treated with bandages, dressings, or wraps. Unless otherwise instructed by your doctor, do not apply another type of skin product on top of Elidel cream. However, you can wear normal clothing over the treated areas.

Avoid sunlight, sun lamps, tanning beds and treatment with UVA or UVB light while using This medication. If you need to be outdoors after applying the cream, wear loose fitting clothing that protects the treated area from the sun. Ask your doctor what other type of sun protection you should use.
