Is Diprofos Injection The Right Medicine For Eczema?

Dear doctors; I have severe eczema which cause a lot of depression in my life and I met many doctors in Saudi and in Dubai without good results. The only injection that make it better is diprofose and last for only one month. The question is what is the last discovery on eczema medication and advise the time interval between doses of diprofose injection without getting its side effects.

Seems overall a bit lame. It is a powerful steroid medicine for injection. THe same, or nearly same, steroid can be also given as a creme. That way only the affected area is exposed ot the drug and side effects are minimal.. Diprofose is generally given monthly. BUT, since its effects are all over, I don't believe its side effects can be avoided.
