Protopic (Tacrolimus) ointment is
used to treat the symptoms of atopic dermatitis (a skin
disease that is also called eczema) in patients who cannot use
other topical medications for their condition or whose eczema
has not responded to another medication. Tacrolimus is in a
class of medications called immunosuppressants. It works by
stopping the immune systemfrom producing substances that cause
eczema.
