Overview Tacrovin 0.03% Lotion

Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is treated with Tacrovin 0.03% Lotion, which reduces inflammation (skin redness and swelling) by modulating the activity of specific immune cells. This soothes itching and improves atopic dermatitis rashes. Apply Tacrovin 0.03% Lotion externally, 2-4 times daily to affected areas, or as directed by your physician. Gently and uniformly rub the lotion into the skin. Avoid over-application and do not bandage or cover treated skin. Report any lack of improvement after two weeks, or worsening skin condition, to your doctor. Potential side effects include redness, headache, folliculitis, and application site reactions such as burning, irritation, itching, and redness. Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding is generally discouraged unless medically necessary.

Applying Tacrovin 0.03% Lotion may cause mild to moderate skin irritation, including burning, itching, redness, warmth, pain, altered sensation, and rash at the application site. These typically subside within a week. Treatment also increases the risk of inflamed or infected hair follicles, cold sores, acne, and generalized herpes simplex infections.
