Question 1

Can i use a moisturizer on my face at the same time as triamcinolone acetonide cream for eczema? if so, do i use cream 1st or moisturizer?

Accepted Answer

The steroid cream will act as a moisturizer as well and you will not need to use a separate moisturizer.
Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex. 
Get HPV vaccine, if you are under 27 years of age.

Some people never get rid of the eczema. Topical steroids are helpful. You need to keep the blisters dry. Are you sure it is eczema? It could be something else. May want to see a dermatologist.

How do i get rid of exzema for once and for all? triamcinolone acetonide cream helps it go away but it comes back

Accepted Answer

It can be difficult to completely eradicate eczema but some measures that can decrease exacerbations include avoiding triggers that you are known to be allergic to, using mild soaps and detergents, frequent moisturizing with lotion (especially after bathing), etc. Use the triamcinolone cream on the affected area once the rash occurs until the area heals. See a skin doctor if it is worsening.

Question 9

I hv been given triamcinolone acetonide inj due to atopic eczema.hw long does inj stays in the blood n has effects? wt is very safe time gaps btw inj

Accepted Answer

This should be reserved for emergency and not as maintenance. Its effect may last for about a week. 
The most important step is applying moisturizer within 3 minutes after bathing on a regular basis plus topical steroid or something like protopic. You need to consult an allergist if you have one in your area since there are many other much safer treatment options.

A doctor said i had eczema however i know i have dermatographia. so he prescribed me triamcinolone acetonide ointment i'm not sure if i should take it?

Accepted Answer

Triamcinolone works well for eczema.  Just use it on the involved areas only and as directed.  Both dermatographia and eczema are both very common.  The treatment for the eczema will not change the dermatographia, good or bad.
