Can Allergex Cream Be Used For Itchy Facial Rash?

Hi Doctor. I ve been battling with itchy skin with fine rash on my face, bach and thighs since 2012. My dermatologist prescribed Protopic ointment and Advantan cream for the face and Epimax for the other parts. Epimax seems to be working fine on my body but my face got worse after using Advantan. My face gets red and itchy around the nose. I used Allergex cream for five days and thought it was working but I m afraid of using in for more than a week. Can I use iton my face and for how long? Thanks
