Dermatitis Atopic Cream (Tacrolimus / Niacinamide) (30 mL)

It helps soothe and relieve symptoms like itching, redness, and dry, inflamed skin. The cream is usually applied directly to the affected areas to help reduce irritation and improve the skin’s barrier function. It’s often prescribed when lifestyle changes and moisturizers alone are not enough to control the symptoms.

The cream works by calming the skin’s immune response and reducing inflammation. Many formulations contain ingredients like corticosteroids, which block inflammatory signals and help prevent the skin from reacting excessively to irritants.

This cream should not be used if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Avoid applying it on broken or infected skin unless directed by your doctor. It’s important to use the cream as prescribed and not overuse it, as prolonged use—especially on sensitive areas like the face—can lead to thinning of the skin or other side effects. If symptoms worsen or new symptoms appear, consult your healthcare provider.

Generally, atopic dermatitis creams have minimal interactions because they are applied to the skin. However, using them along with other topical medications like antifungals, antibiotics, or other steroid creams without medical advice can cause irritation or reduce effectiveness. Be sure to inform your doctor if you are using other skin treatments at the same time.

Most people tolerate the cream well, but some may experience side effects such as burning, stinging, dryness, or redness at the application site. Prolonged use can lead to thinning of the skin, stretch marks, or easy bruising. In rare cases, people may develop allergic reactions like swelling, itching, or rash. If any severe skin irritation or signs of infection occur, stop using the cream and contact your healthcare provider.

This cream should be used with caution during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Some ingredients, like corticosteroids, may pass into the bloodstream in small amounts, so it’s important to discuss the risks and benefits with your healthcare provider. Use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to control symptoms, and avoid applying it over large areas unless advised by a doctor.
