General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to HCM.

If you have been diagnosed with atopic dermatitis then you should continue with cutisoft cream and nivea cream.

You must undergo allergic testing and detailed thoroughly examination by dermatologist if you do not get relief.

You might also require topical and oral corticosteroids with topical antifungal cream or ointments with other antihistamines and supportive treatment to get rid off itching.

So,it would be better you consult dermatologist or allergic specialist for prescription of this drugs.

Thanks and regards,
