How to take Dermasorb TA?
Read all the instructions or guides that come with your medication and follow all the directions. Follow the directions on your prescription label. Dermasorb TA lotion, ointment, or spray should only be used on skin. Triamcinolone is applied to an inside-the-mouth ulcer and then left there. Dermasorb T.A. should not be swallowed. You should wash your hands both before and after you use Dermasorb TA unless this medication is being used to treat your hand skin. A thin layer of the medicine should be applied to the affected skin. You should not use this medication to cover a large surface area unless you have been told by your doctor. Cover the area of skin that has been treated only if your doctor says so. The amount of medicine that is absorbed by your skin can be increased if you cover the treated area. This may have harmful side effects. Use only loose-fitting or plastic diapers if you're treating your diaper area. Use the paste by pressing a tiny dab on the ulcer, but don't rub it in. This will leave a thin layer that you should keep for several hours. Triamcinolone is applied to the teeth at night or after eating. Please follow your doctor's directions. If your symptoms don't improve or worsen, call your doctor. Triamcinolone toothpaste should help heal a mouth ulcer within a week. Once your symptoms have been controlled, you should discontinue using the medication. Keep away from heat and moisture. Store at room temperature.
