TRIADERM CREAM (TRIAMCINOLONE ACETONIDE)
Triaderm Cream Description
Topical corticosteroids can be prescribed to treat the itching, swelling, or inflammation of eczema, psoriasis, rashes, and allergic skin reactions. Triaderm Cream or generic Triamcinolone Acetonide is not a cure for psoriasis, eczema, and certain other skin conditions, but it will reduce the symptoms should you experience a flare-up as it is formulated to resemble your body’s own cortisol which helps to regulate your immune system. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.
Decrease the Immune Response to Lessen Symptoms of Inflammation
When applied to the affected skin area as directed, Triaderm Cream is absorbed into your skin cells where it will work to block the production of the substances, including prostaglandins, that activate the inflammatory actions of your immune system. Although inflammation is meant to be a part of the healing process, inflammation creates more inflammation which means more pain and swelling.
Conditions Treated by Triaderm Cream
Allergic reactions and autoimmune conditions can set off your immune system to believe that you are under attack. To protect you, a complicated and very precise plan of action is set into motion. The inflammatory response is usually the first responder, with swelling a fast second on scene. This action will also help to isolate the attacker so no further damage can be done to you.
Next up is the clean-up crew that consists of white blood cells called phagocytes that will consume any germs and dead or damaged cells. The phagocytes eventually expire and help to form pus from a collection of dead tissue and bacteria, and dead/live phagocytes. It is mind boggling that simply touching an allergen, getting a scratch, or experiencing a flare-up of eczema involves so much.
Before You Receive a Triaderm Cream Rx
Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breast feeding before you apply Triaderm Cream as there may be risks to your unborn or nursing baby. Discuss other medical conditions or allergies with your doctor and list any OTC and Rx drugs you currently take or use, including herbal remedies and dietary or vitamin supplements so your doctor can determine if Triaderm Cream is safe for you to apply.
Triaderm Cream Precautions
Triaderm Cream is usually only prescribed for short-term treatment as you may risk serious side effects if you apply it for a long period of time. Unless you are instructed otherwise, do not cover the treated area as this can cause Triaderm Cream to be absorbed too deeply. Wash your hands thoroughly before and after applying Triaderm Cream, unless you are treating your hands. Do not store Triaderm Cream or other medicinal products within a child’s reach.
