Relieva Exceeds Expectations in Recent Clinical Trial for Eczema Atopic...

"Eczema is a cruel disease that is often mistaken as just a rash but can have a profound impact on patients' quality-of-life and emotional well-being, particularly in children. It not only afflicts the patients, their friends and family are also affected by the emotional impact."

Eczema affects approximately 17 percent of the U.S. population and is often a distressing condition characterized by itchy, scaly, dry, inflamed skin. It is estimated that 90 percent of eczema patients experience symptoms before the age of 5. Many patients, especially children, experience a significant emotional impact, feeling 'different' and/or left out. Feelings of social isolation and lack of sleep due to night-time itching demonstrate how eczema impacts a patient's daily live.

A global study comprised of interviews with 2,002 patients over the age of 13, and the caregivers of children between the ages of 2-13, from eight countries with moderate to severe eczema showed that on average, 86 percent of patients avoid at least one type of everyday activity during a flare-up. In addition, 74 percent of patients and caregivers state that their physicians never discussed the emotional impact that eczema has had on their lives.
