Tacroz Forte 0.1 %W/W Description

Tacroz Forte XL Ointment 40 gm is an immunosuppressant ointment. It is used to treat moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (eczema) and prevent organ rejection following a transplant. Eczema, also kno

wn as atopic dermatitis, is a common skin ailment characterised by irritated and itchy skin areas. Itching, dry, flaky, rough, and irritated skin symptoms. When an individual's immune system perceives a donated organ as foreign and attempts to destroy it, organ rejection occurs. Tacroz Forte XL Ointment contains Tacrolimus, which prevents immune cells in the skin from overreacting to a stimulus. As a result, allergic reactions and inflammation are reduced (redness and swelling). T and B lymphocytes (cells in the immune system) typically attack foreign invaders and defend the body against foreign cells. Thus, infections are suppressed by Tacroz Forte XL Ointment, and organ rejection in transplanted persons is reduced by making it easier for the body to accept the new organ. Directions for use of Tacroz Forte XL Ointment should be strictly followed. Itching, burning sensations, redness, pain, skin tingling, nausea, diarrhoea, headache, elevated blood sugar levels, kidney difficulties, disorientation, and stomach pain are possible side effects of Tacroz Forte XL Ointment. These do not require medical care and go away with time. Visit a doctor if the side effects persist or worsen with time. Please inform your doctor if you are allergic to Tacroz Forte XL Ointment or other medications. Before using this ointment, you should see a doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Avoid smoking or walking near flames because Tacroz Forte XL Ointment catches fire. Keep fabric (bedding, clothing, and dressings) that has come into contact with this medicine away from any fire sources.
