Hi,
As mentioned from the other post, the length of time before effect is seen as well as observable side effects varies from one person to another. For
Elidel or
pimecrolimus may cause severe burning of treated skin; new symptoms of viral skin infection; worsened skin symptoms; swollen glands, sore throat; or fever, chills, body aches, and flu symptoms. This medicine is not for long-term use and it is best that you talk to your attending physician or dermatologist prior to starting it.
