Overview Tbis 0.1% Ointment

This 0.1% ointment treats atopic dermatitis (eczema) by reducing inflammation. It achieves this by modulating the activity of immune cells responsible for skin redness and swelling, thereby alleviating itching and improving rash symptoms. Apply this ointment externally, 2-4 times daily to affected areas, or as directed by your physician. Gently and uniformly massage it into the skin until absorbed. Avoid over-application and do not bandage or cover the treated area. Consult your doctor if symptoms don't improve within two weeks or worsen. Potential side effects include redness (erythema), headache, folliculitis, and local reactions such as burning, irritation, itching, and redness.
