Overview Habiccor Ointment

Steroidal Habiccor Ointment treats allergic and inflammatory skin issues. It soothes swelling, redness, and itching externally. Apply only as directed by your physician, ensuring the affected area is clean and dry. Always wash your hands meticulously before and after application. Consistent use maximizes effectiveness; exceeding the prescribed dosage won't accelerate healing and may worsen side effects. If symptoms persist beyond four weeks or worsen, consult your doctor immediately. Maintain cleanliness and dryness of the affected area; handwashing is crucial. Headache and application site discomfort are possible side effects; report persistent or bothersome effects. Seek immediate medical attention for severe allergic reactions (rash, facial/throat swelling, breathing difficulties, dizziness, nausea). While unlikely to interact with oral or injectable medications, inform your physician of prior allergic reactions to similar topical steroids before commencing treatment.
