Triamaderm Ointment 15gm

Triamaderm Ointment 15gm is used for managing the following conditions:

• Atopic dermatitis, a type of skin inflammation causing itchy, red skin.
• Contact dermatitis, which is skin irritation due to contact with certain substances.
• Seborrheic dermatitis, a chronic form of eczema that affects the sebaceous glands.
• Psoriasis, a skin disorder causing red patches covered with silvery scales.
• Eczema, a common condition resulting in dry and itchy skin patches.

• Clean the affected area gently before applying the ointment.
• Apply a thin layer of the ointment on the area as directed by your doctor.
• Remember to wash your hands before and after application unless your hands are in the treatment area.
• Be careful to avoid getting the ointment into your eyes or mouth. If this happens, rinse thoroughly with water and consult your doctor if the irritation persists.
• Do not cover the treated area with bandages or other coverings unless advised by your doctor.

Triamaderm Ointment 15gm is applied topically.
 

Triamaderm Ointment 15gm contains triamcinolone (0.1%), which acts in the following ways:

• Binding to Glucocorticoid Receptor: Triamcinolone binds to a specific receptor in the cell called the glucocorticoid receptor. This binding action forms a complex that moves into the nucleus of the cell.
• Anti-inflammatory Protein Production: Once inside the nucleus, this complex attaches itself to parts of the DNA known as glucocorticoid response elements. This triggers the production of proteins that have anti-inflammatory properties.
• Suppression of Pro-Inflammatory Proteins: Simultaneously, triamcinolone also suppresses proteins that promote inflammation.
• Inhibition of Arachidonic Acid Release: This ointment reduces inflammation by inhibiting the release of arachidonic acid from cell membranes.

• Store Triamaderm Ointment 15gm at room temperature not exceeding 25°C.
• Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and moisture.
• Do not freeze.
• Keep it in its original container, tightly closed.
• Always keep the ointment out of children's reach.

• If you are managing psoriasis with Triamaderm Ointment 15gm, reducing alcohol intake might help. Alcohol can trigger flare-ups and may also lessen the effectiveness of medications.
• For conditions like eczema or dermatitis, avoid wearing tight, synthetic clothing. Natural fabrics, such as cotton, can allow your skin to breathe and minimise irritation.
