Why is Derma-Smoothe Scalp FS prescribed?

Derma-Smoothe Scalp FS (Fluocinolone acetonide) Oil is a topical steroid medication applied to the skin. It is used to treat atopic dermatitis (a type of eczema) and scalp psoriasis.

What does it do?

Topical fluocinolone is a corticosteroid that helps reduce skin inflammation by calming the immune response and preventing the release of inflammatory substances. It also narrows blood vessels in the treated area, which can help decrease swelling.

How should I take it?

Use this medicine only on the skin. Do not swallow. Wash your hands before and after using it (if you’re treating your hands, just wash before). Avoid putting it on healthy skin or large areas. Keep it away from your eyes. If it gets in your eyes, rinse with water. Follow the directions carefully.

What if I missed a dose?

In case you miss a dose of topical fluocinolone, apply it as soon as possible unless your next dose is near. If so, skip the missed dose and keep to your regular schedule. The scalp oil is typically used daily when needed. Do not double dose.

What are the special precautions before taking Derma-Smoothe Scalp FS?

Inform your doctor about all the medications you are taking, your current and previous medical history.

• Diabetes
• Skin infections
• Thin or wrinkled skin
• Large areas of burned or damaged skin
• Allergic reactions to Fluocinolone, steroids, peanuts, foods, other medications, dyes, or preservatives
• Pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breastfeeding

Contact your care team if exposed to chickenpox or measles, or if you have sores or blisters that won’t heal.

This medication can weaken latex products like condoms and diaphragms. Avoid contact with latex items and discard any that come into contact with the medication.

Discuss use in children with your doctor. If applied to a child’s diaper area, avoid covering with tight diapers or plastic pants to prevent increased absorption and side effects.

This list may not include all side effects. Contact your doctor for advice about any side effects you experience.

Is it safe to take it with another drug?

No known interactions are expected; however, avoid using any other skin products without consulting your healthcare team first. Be sure to share with your doctor a full list of all prescription medicines, over-the-counter drugs, and vitamins you use.

How should I store it?
