Cordran Tape (Flurandrenolide) is prescribed to help relieve the inflammation and itching associated with several skin conditions that respond to corticosteroids, particularly for localized dry and scaling lesions.

What does it do?

Flurandrenolide decreases the redness, swelling, and itching that can occur in these types of conditions..

How should I take it?

Cordran Tape is used only on the skin but do not use it on your face, underarms, or face unless instructed to do so by your doctor.

Wash and dry your hands prior to use. Cleanse and dry the affected area thoroughly prior to applying the tape and estimate a proper amount of tape to be used. Apply the tape directly to the skin and apply pressure to keep it in place. Cordran Tape must be cut and do not tear,replace tape after 12 hours or as directed by your physician.

What if I missed a dose?

If you missed a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it’s almost time for your next dose, skip the missed one and take your next dose at the usual time. Avoid taking two doses to make up for the missed one.

What are the special precautions before taking Cordran Tape?

Topical corticosteroids can lead to systemic absorption, resulting in reversible suppression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, symptoms of Cushing's syndrome, hyperglycemia, and glucosuria in certain patients. Factors that increase systemic absorption include the application of more potent steroids, usage over extensive surface areas, prolonged application, and the use of occlusive dressings.

Consequently, patients who are using a high dose of a potent topical steroid over a large area or under an occlusive dressing should be periodically assessed for signs of HPA axis suppression through urinary-free cortisol and ACTH stimulation tests. If HPA axis suppression is observed, it is advisable to withdraw the medication, lessen the application frequency, or use a steroid with lower potency.

Does it have any side effects?

The following local adverse reactions are infrequently associated with topical corticosteroids; however, they may occur more often with the use of occlusive dressings.

• Acneform eruptions
• Burning
• Dryness
• Itching
• Irritation
• Folliculitis
• Hypertrichosis
• Hypopigmentation

The following can be seen more frequently when using occlusive dressings:

• Maceration of the skin
• Secondary infection
• Skin atrophy
• Striae
• Miliaria
Is it safe to take it with another drug?

Cordran Tape is unlikely to interact with other medications you are taking. Nonetheless, it is advisable not to use the tape in conjunction with other topical or oral corticosteroids, as this may lead to an additive effect.

How should I store it?

Store Cordran Tape at room temperature and do not freeze. Keep it in the original container with the lid tightly sealed, and do not repackage it.

What action should I take in case of overdose?
If infection or irritation develops discontinue, seek for an immediate medical attention or call at your nearest emergency department.
