Q. What is Tacoba Forte 0.1% Ointment used for?
Tacoba Forte 0.1% Ointment is a medicine that modulates the immune system. It works on the immune system and mostly decreases its activity. It is used to treat moderate to severe eczema (atopic dermatitis) in adults who do not respond to steroids or develop side effects on using them. In atopic dermatitis, the skin’s immune system undergoes an overreaction and causes skin inflammation leading to itchiness, redness and dryness. Tacoba Forte 0.1% Ointment acts on the abnormal immune response and alters it, thereby relieving the skin inflammation and itchiness.
Q. What are the side effects of Tacoba Forte 0.1% Ointment?
Tacoba Forte 0.1% Ointment, when applied to the skin, may cause skin irritation, burning sensation and itching at the site of application. These are usually mild to moderate in severity and normally resolve within one week of starting the treatment. Redness is also a common manifestation along with sensation of warmth, pain, altered sensation and rash at the site of application. Using it increases the patients’ increased risk of getting inflamed or infected hair follicles, cold sores, acne and generalized herpes simplex infections.
