Indications
Teracort is used to treat the itching, redness, dryness, crusting,
scaling, inflammation, and discomfort of various skin conditions.
It is also used to relieve the discomfort of mouth sores.
Description
The antiinflammatory actions of corticosteroids are thought to
involve lipocortins, phospholipase A2 inhibitory proteins which,
through inhibition of arachidonic acid, control the biosynthesis
of prostaglandins and leukotrienes. The immune system is
suppressed by corticosteroids due to a decrease in the function of
the lymphatic system, a reduction in immunoglobulin and complement
concentrations, the precipitation of lymphocytopenia, and
interference with antigen-antibody binding.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to triamcinolone acetonide or any of the other
ingredients in this preparation contraindicates its use.
Dosage
As per the physician’s advice.
