Instructions on How to use Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream
Perrigo Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream 0.1% is a topical cream used to treat inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and more. To use the cream, you should always make sure to clean and dry the affected area before applying the cream. Then, use a pea-sized amount of the cream and gently rub it over the affected area in a circular motion for a few minutes. Allow the cream to complete air dry before covering it with clothing. For best results, use the cream as directed by your physician or the product instructions. Make sure to not bandage or wrap the area with plastic after applying the cream. Finally, avoid getting the cream on your eyes, nose, mouth or genitals, and wash the hands after use.
- Primary Indications: Atopic dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis (plaque-type), contact dermatitis, and seborrheic dermatitis - as per FDA-approved manufacturer prescribing information
- Application Sites: Trunk, extremities, and scalp. Exercise clinical caution on the face, axillae, and groin due to increased systemic absorption risk and potential for skin atrophy at these sites
- Combination Use: May be used alongside topical antibiotics or antivirals when secondary infection or viral involvement is clinically indicated, per prescribing clinician direction
- Medspa and Post-Procedure Use: Used by aesthetic professionals to manage post-procedure inflammation and erythema - clinical judgment required regarding timing and surface area of application
- Pediatric Use: Approved for patients aged 3 years and older; lowest effective dose and shortest effective duration are recommended in pediatric populations due to higher surface-area-to-body-mass ratio and associated systemic absorption risk
- Formulary Context: Commonly stocked alongside low-potency agents such as hydrocortisone 1% and higher-potency agents such as clobetasol 0.05% to provide a tiered corticosteroid formulary for a clinical setting
