Tacroz Forte Xl Ointment 40gm

Tacroz Forte XL Ointment is used to treat moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (eczema) and other inflammatory skin conditions. It works by suppressing the immune system in the affected area, reducing inflammation, itching, and irritation, and promoting faster skin healing.

To use Tacroz Forte XL Ointment effectively, follow these steps:

• Before application, make sure the affected skin area is clean and dry.
• Apply the ointment to the affected areas as directed by your doctor, and rub it gently and completely into the skin.
• After application, wash your hands; unless they are in the area being affected.
• Do not apply on your skin for more than 6 weeks continuously, without consulting your doctor.

Tacroz Forte XL Ointment is applied topically.

Tacroz Forte XL Ointment contains tacrolimus (0.1%), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Inhibits T-lymphocyte activation: Tacrolimus works by inhibiting the activation of T-lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell that plays a key role in your body's immune response.
• Blocks the production of inflammatory cytokines: The active ingredient tacrolimus binds to a protein inside your cells, forming a complex that prevents the production of inflammatory cytokines, which cause inflammation.
• Reduces skin inflammation: Tacorimus effectively reduces inflammation and itching by blocking the production of inflammatory cytokines and T-lymphocytes.

• Store Tacroz Forte XL Ointment at room temperature below 25°C.
• Keep the ointment tube tightly closed when not in use, to protect it from air and moisture.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• As Tacroz Forte XL Ointment is used to manage eczema, try to identify and avoid triggers that cause flare-ups. These could include certain foods, dust mites, or stress.
• Regular bathing with mild soap and applying moisturisers can help control the dryness and itching associated with this skin condition.
