I don't know how much help I can be - but my husband used the tacro cream for about a month after his transplant. It worked very well. We had a routine - I would wash his back with Eucerin Body Wash, then rinse, then lightly pat it dry. I used paper towels. Then I would slather the cream on his back. He also had the rash on his arms, arm pits and face which he washed and creamed up himself.

He got a lot of relief from the cream. His rash is almost gone now - he just has scaly bits of flakes and they've told him to stop using the cream now.

Best of luck - I hope this helps.
