Triamcinolone acetonide (Triacort) ointment 0.1% – [10 g tube]

Fluorinated glucocorticosteroid drug, has a pronounced anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and anti-exudative effect.

Interacting with a specific protein receptor in the target tissues, it regulates -expressing corticoid-dependent genes and thus affects protein synthesis. Reduces the formation, release and activity of inflammatory mediators (histamine, kinin, prostaglandins, lysosomal enzymes). Suppresses cell migration to the site of inflammation; reduces vasodilation and increased vascular permeability in the inflammation focus. Stabilizes lysosomal membrane enzymes of leukocytes; inhibits antibody synthesis and disrupts antigen recognition. Inhibits the release of interleukin 1, interleukin 2, gamma interferon from lymphocytes and macrophages. Induces the formation of lipocortin, inhibits the release of inflammatory mediators by eosinophils and stabilizes mast cell membranes. All these effects are involved in suppressing the inflammatory response in tissues in response to mechanical, chemical or immune damage.
