Triamcinolone Acetonide Oral Paste 0.1% – 7.5gm Uses

Triamcinolone Acetonide Oral Paste is primarily used to treat:

  • Mouth ulcers
  • Inflammatory lesions in the mouth caused by trauma or irritation
  • Symptoms of lichen planus or other oral mucosal conditions
  • Pain and discomfort associated with canker sores

How Does Triamcinolone Acetonide Oral Paste 0.1% – 7.5gm Work?

Triamcinolone Acetonide is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation and suppressing immune responses in the affected area. When applied to oral lesions, it forms a protective barrier over the ulcer, allowing the medication to remain in place and provide localized relief. This mechanism promotes healing and reduces symptoms such as pain, redness, and swelling.

How to Use Triamcinolone Acetonide Oral Paste 0.1% – 7.5gm

  • Apply a small amount of paste directly to the affected area in the mouth, preferably at bedtime or as directed by your doctor.
  • Gently dab the paste without rubbing or spreading it, allowing it to form a thin layer over the lesion.
  • Do not eat or drink for at least 30 minutes after application to ensure optimal adhesion.
  • Use the medication only as prescribed by your healthcare provider.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include:

  • Mild burning, itching, or irritation at the application site
  • Temporary discoloration of the oral mucosa

Rare but serious side effects include allergic reactions, secondary infections, or systemic corticosteroid effects. Contact your doctor if side effects persist or worsen.

Drug Interactions

Avoid using Triamcinolone Acetonide Oral Paste with:

  • Other corticosteroids, as they may increase the risk of side effects
