If no improvement is seen after a fortnight, or if your condition worsens, consult your doctor immediately.

FAQs on Tbis 0.1% Ointment

This 0.1% ointment is an immunomodulatory medicine, primarily reducing immune system activity. It's indicated for treating moderate to severe eczema (atopic dermatitis) in adults whose condition is unresponsive to steroids or who experience steroid-related side effects. Atopic dermatitis involves an overactive skin immune response causing inflammation, itching, redness, and dryness. This ointment targets this abnormal immune response, thereby alleviating inflammation and itching.
Applying this 0.1% ointment topically may cause mild to moderate skin irritation, including burning, itching, redness, warmth, pain, altered sensation, and rash. These side effects usually subside within a week. Use may also increase the risk of inflamed or infected hair follicles, cold sores, acne, and generalized herpes simplex infections.
Tbis 0.1% Ointment offers safe and effective short-term treatment of atopic dermatitis, demonstrating superior safety compared to other immunosuppressants. Minimal systemic absorption following topical application results in fewer side effects than oral treatments.
No, Tbis 0.1% Ointment is not a controlled substance because it lacks abuse potential. Controlled substances require authorization from both a doctor and relevant authorities due to their potential for misuse.
Prolonged use of Tbis 0.1% Ointment may increase the risk of lymphoma, a type of lymph node tumor. Studies indicate a link between the use of Tbis 0.1% Ointment or similar medications and the development of skin cancer or lymphoma in a small number of patients. Seek medical advice if you need to use Tbis 0.1% Ointment for over six weeks, or if your eczema symptoms worsen or fail to improve.
