Amcinonide


  • Amcinonide is a topical steroid used to relieve skin inflammation and itchiness.
  • Absorbing too much medication through your skin can lead to unwanted side effects elsewhere in the body. To keep this problem to a minimum, avoid using large amounts of amcinonide over large areas, and do not cover the area with airtight dressings such as plastic wrap or adhesive bandages unless directed by your doctor.
  • Only use Amcinonide externally and avoid contact with the eyes. Do not apply it to your face, underarms, or skin area above the genitals unless directed by your doctor. Do not use Amcinonide for any condition other than for which it was prescribed. Report any signs of skin reactions to your doctor. Discontinue use if no improvement is seen in 2 weeks.
    If the treatment area is large you should keep regular appointments with your doctor to monitor your pituitary and adrenal gland function. .
    how should I take Amcinonide?
    Apply amcinonide sparingly and rub it in gently. Use this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is for use only on the skin. Be careful to keep it out of your eyes.
