Calamine can also be used to treat eczema under certain circumstances, especially when eczema has just occurred. It is only manifested as inflammatory erythema, papules, collicular blisters, etc. At this time, calamine lotion can be used for topical external treatment. However, if the eczema produced by the patient is accompanied by a certain exudative reaction, or the formation of epidermal erosion, it cannot be treated with this drug. If the patient's eczema develops chronically and is accompanied by epidermal hyperplasia and hypertrophy, and there are certain dry symptoms, it cannot be treated with this drug, otherwise it may lead to drier skin.
