Switching to Similac Alimentum to Help with Eczema

My 7 month old son has really bad eczema. I've tried every lotion, body wash, detergent-you name it, I tried it. He was on Good Start formula, then I switched him to Good Start Soy. There is still no change in his skin condition. I am thinking about trying Similac Alimentum but wanted to find out if anyone has tried this formula for eczema. Also, where can I find coupons for Similac formula because it is $25 for a little can. Thanks.

Good Start Formula vs Similac vs Nutramigen

It is so expensive and since I am doing half breastmilk half formula bottles for when I go to work, I...

Now My Son Has Thrush!

Hello Mommies -- First of all I want to thank everyone who responded to my request. All of your suggestions were helpful and thank you for the support that I needed. Well, it turns out that it may not be constipation with my son, because when I took him to the doctor on Tues., she performed a rectal stimulation and he went right after and the BM was soft. He also went twice that evening, all being soft. The only thing is that he hasn't gone since and it is now Thurs. BUT, when I took him to the doctor, she noticed that he now has Thrush....
