triamcinolone acetonide creme is an anti-inflamitory topical treatment. It's probably not a good idea to use that to treat herpes. The cream may aggravate a breakout. You would want to use some thing that has Lysine in it or some thing that has antiviral properties to it.

Can triamcinolone acetonide treat poison ivy?

I was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide for my poison ivy, so I'm guessing the consensus in the medical field is that it does work. I am very allergic to poison ivy, and after 6 days, the rash has diminished but not disappeared. The intensity of the redness has lessened 4-5 shades, and it does not itch near as often, nor as badly. In my opinion, and apparently in my doctors opinion, it does work. It is a topical steriod, and steroids are often the prescription givin for poison ivy infection.

Can nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide cream help athlete feet?

I was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide to use WITH an over the counter anti fungal cream (like clotrimazole) to cure my athlete's foot. I was getting severe, scarring fungal infections that the anti fungal creams would not cure. The Triamcinolone stops the itching and burning, as well as the swelling which allowed the anti fungal cream to work much more effectively and quicker.


Can Nystatin and Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment be used to treat acne?

After over 15 yrs of suffering from Rosacea, which has only progressed, I've tried so many different topical creams, gels and oral antibiotics prescribed by my specialist... none solved the problem. I read an article online from a man who professed to have cured his Rosacea with the nystatin/triamcinolone cream. I happened to have some, so I felt like I had nothing to lose by trying it. Overnight, the numerous pustules on my forehead and face cleared up and I was able to go without concealer for the first time in years. It was Christmas day... what a gift!
