About Tacronex Slution

Tacronex Slution belongs to a class of drugs called 'immunosuppressants' used to treat moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (eczema). Atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema, is a common skin condition associated with inflamed and itchy skin patches. The symptoms include itchy, dry, flaky, swollen, rough and irritated skin.

Tacronex Slution contains 'Tacrolimus' that works by suppressing the over-reaction of immune cells in the skin to a stimulus. Thus, it reduces allergic reactions and inflammation (redness and swelling). 

Use Tacronex Slution as prescribed. You are advised to use Tacronex Slution for as long as your doctor has recommended it for you based on your medical condition. Some people may experience itching, burning sensation, redness, pain or skin tingling. Most of these side effects of Tacronex Slution do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to Tacrolimus or other medicines. If you are pregnant or a breastfeeding mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Tacronex Slution. Avoid alcohol consumption with Tacronex Slution as it may cause flushing (sudden reddening of face or skin that makes you feel warm and hot). Do not cover or wrap the treated area with a bandage or dressing.  Avoid smoking or going near naked flames as the fabric (bedding, clothing, dressings) in contact with Tacronex Slution catches fire and burns easily.

Uses of Tacronex Slution

Atopic dermatitis (eczema)

Directions for Use

Wash your hands before and after applying Tacronex Slution. Apply it as a thin layer on the clean and dry affected skin area as prescribed by your doctor. Tacronex Slution is only for external use. Avoid contact with eyes, nose or mouth as it may irritate. If Tacronex Slution accidentally comes in contact with these areas, rinse with water thoroughly.

Medicinal Benefits

Tacronex Slution contains Tacrolimus, an immunosuppressant used to treat moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (eczema) in adults who are not adequately responsive or are intolerant to topical corticosteroids and in children (above 2 years) who failed to respond adequately to topical corticosteroids.  Tacronex Slution suppresses the overreaction of immune cells in the skin to a stimulus. Thus, it reduces allergic reactions and inflammation (redness and swelling).
