The International Eczema-Psoriasis Foundation

The International Eczema-Psorasis Foundation is an organization whose mission is to gather in one place, available information found on the web, in books and articles concerning the often confusing terms dermatitis, eczema, and psoriasis. Our goal is to assist others in learning about these chronic conditions. The information provided by this site should not be considered medical advice, nor is it intended to replace consultation with a 'qualified physician'. The various dermatitis conditions and treatments may vary substantially from one patient to another, and treatment must be tailored for each individual case.
