Suggest Treatment For Skin Discoloration When Suffering From Eczema

I have been diagnosed with eczema since taking Diovan HCT and later switched to Valsartan HCT. My skin is very dry and my hands are totally discolored. What can be done about the skin discoloration and how long is this going to take to clear up? Disappointed in Morgan City

thanks for asking,
your skin discoloration is due to eczema. it is called post inflammatory hypo or hyperpigmentation. you can use emollient, placentrex gel to clear discolouration faster. clearence will depend on amount and depth of pigmentation.
