Triderm Side Effects, Overdose and Pregnancy Information
Triderm is a topical corticosteroid given to treat the rash, itching,
inflammation, and other forms of skin disorders including eczema and
psoriasis. Main ingredient in Triderm is Triamcinolone. Drugs like Triderm do not cure the cause of these problems but
they can quickly relieve the symptoms by interfering with the production
of various substances in the body that cause these skin disorders. That is
why it is imperative that corticosteroids like Triderm should not be used
without prior consultation of your physician, as these conditions could be
a symptom of a larger problem.
Triderm Side Effects
Common side effects of using Triderm may include allergic reaction,
rash, irritation, acne, itching, and discoloration of skin. Triderm side
effects are more likely when the treated area is covered with waterproof
bandage.
Use of large quantities of topical corticosteroids like Triderm over
large parts of your body should be avoided as large quantities may be
absorbed into the blood stream, which could lead to serious side
effects.
