Skinalar N Cream

• Skin Infections: Used for inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, or psoriasis that are infected or likely to become infected.

Fluocinolone acetonide is a corticosteroid primarily used in dermatology to reduce skin inflammation and relieve itching. It is a synthetic hydrocortisone derivative. Neomycin Sulfate is actively transported across the bacterial cell membrane, binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit of bacterial ribosomes, and interferes with an initiation complex between mRNA and the 30S subunit, inhibiting protein synthesis.

Adult Dose (Topical):

• Apply a small quantity of cream lightly up to two or three times a day, and massage gently and thoroughly into the skin.
• These recommendations apply to both children and adults, including the elderly.

Common Side Effects:

• Burning at application site
• Irritation
• Itching
• Redness
• Thinning of skin (with prolonged use)

Use in Pregnancy: May be unsafe; animal studies have shown harmful effects; minimize amount and length of treatment if necessary.

Precautions:

• Appropriate anti-infective cover should be given in the presence of viral or fungal infection.
• Prolonged use should be avoided in conditions where absorption of neomycin is possible.
• Do not apply to the external auditory canal of patients with perforated eardrums.
• Long-term continuous topical steroid therapy can produce atrophic skin changes.
• Do not apply to the face for prolonged periods.
• Prolonged use or treatment of extensive areas can produce adrenal suppression, especially in infants and children.
