User Reviews for triamcinolone acetonide topical

Prescribed for persistent red and inflamed skin after a cellulitis infection on lower legs. Made skin feel better at first, applied once or twice a day. On 7th day redness got worse, today bad itching and blisters have developed. Seems like the area is infected again. Will stop using. (I also have type 2 diabetes.)

I have had eczema for several years on the knuckle left hand and on my left and right 2nd toe. This cream has never gotten rid of it. Just made it look better for temporary.

I was just prescribed this cream for breast cancer radiation burns. I tried other things and am hoping this will help. I have a 2 inch square itchy spot near my colarbone and underneath my mastectomy scar is all red and feels tight like it might crack. I am off radiation until this heals. Will post another review in a week.

I have been using this for almost 15 years now and I can honestly say that this is the only thing that truly helps me when my eczema flairs up. As a child I had eczema spots on my ankles, knees, elbows, hands, and on the back of my neck. After extensive use almost all of those areas have been healed on now appear normal. I do have noticeable discoloration on my elbows from long term usage of the product. From that I learned not to use it everyday unless I have a bad flair up. Now I just have eczema on the joints of my hands and when those areas flair up (skin cracks, area worsens and flakes) this repairs my skin in 2-3 days which is amazing. Never realized how much I needed this stuff until I went on vacation and my eczema flairs up but I didn't have this cream. Never again. Read More Read Less

just isn't fighting my dermatitis any longer. like whatever is messing with my skin has become immune to it. makes a flakey paste on areas of inflammation

I got a bad eczema around arms, legs, face and neck. I started use it 3 days ago and now eczema is almost gone.

Difficult to fill prescription.

It worked great! Condition gone within a week!

Have had a rash for past 8 months after IV infusion of zoledronic acid at the LB VA Hospital for osteoporosis rash on my neck, back,scalp, back of arms and around the back of waist. I saw 4 Demotologists until the last dr prescribed this and after a few days the back, arms and neck and waist have begun clearing up the redness scabs from itching are flaking off and NO more itching. The scalp is taking longer though. AFTER 8 MONTHS.....FINALLY seeing improvement. This drug is GREAT!

Can this medicine be used for toe splitting caused by athlete's foot.

I dab this under and around my eyes. I get eczema scale patches in that and other areas. It works great! I didn't know of the over use but I need more and don't have insurance. I'm afraid of what I'm going to look like when I run out.

I've been using this for 6 years for PLEVA and some eczema for any spots or flareups. It usually shrinks a good amount once I wake up. I feel a little more cautious the more I use it over the years, I no longer use it every day but only when any spots come up. I don't want to be too reliant or have it affect me negatively.

After suffering with psoriasis for 50 years, Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream miraculously keeps it under control so it stops itching and heals. However, I have to keep using it or the itching comes back.

I have used this as an ointment for skin rashes for over 10 years. Works well to get rid of immediate flare up but never seems to completely eliminate the rash. Wondering about the long term consequences of using this product. I have had several unusual eye conditions in the past year and am wondering if it could be linked in any way to long term use of this product?

This medication gave me a terrible allergic reaction and caused inflammation and scaly patches on my hands, face, ears, and feet. Two months later I'm treating it with a topical steroid, I've never had an allergic reaction to anything before. This was the first and last time I'll use this drug.

Developed an unknown rash on my right wrist and left forearm in May. Went to get it checked by one doctor who said it was contact dermatitis. Gave me Methylprednisolone,which helped a little at first,and Triamcinolone lotion. Saw my primary physician in August and she said I had dyshydrotic eczema,whatever that is. She prescribed Muiprocin ointment,Triamcinolone lotion and Ammonium Lactate. As with my earlier experience,the Triamcinolone isn't doing squat to improve my condition. I still have one refill on it,which I doubt I will get filled. Seriously,it's like rubbing on nothing. Two minutes after I applied it,the lotion dried up and disappeared from my arms.Read More Read Less

Doesn't stop the itch seems as if it makes the itching worse.

Honestly, I don't know what skin condition I have I only get it when first exposed to the sun and only on my hands. It's probably some form of eczema but by the time I get to the doctor's, it "looks" different. The little bumps that are filled with liquid have been scratched off. But this year, I got it and it was horrible, Skin cracked and bled, hands and fingers were swollen so I went in and was prescribed this and within 4 days, it completely cleared.

I've been using this for months, best damn lube I've ever used!!

This medication helps me to clear my entire rash body. I love it
