About Ultiderm Lotion

Ultiderm Lotion belongs to the class of medications called ‘Corticosteroids’ used to treat inflammation and itching caused by skin conditions such as seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema and dermatitis. Seborrheic dermatitis is the inflammation of the oily glands present in the skin. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disorder that results in itchy and scaly rashes on the skin. Eczema is the red and itchy rashes on the skin that occur due to allergens such as pollen, food or other irritants. Dermatitis is a generalized term for inflammation of the skin. 

Ultiderm Lotion contains ‘fluocinolone acetonide’ which belongs to the class of ‘corticosteroids’. It reduces the release of inflammatory mediators (chemicals that cause inflammation). It causes constriction of blood vessels decreasing the access of cells to the site of injury. This effect helps in reducing the swelling, pain, itching and discomfort.

The common side-effects of Ultiderm Lotion are burning or itching sensation at the site of application, body aches or pain, cough, sore throat, fever, headache, lightening of normal skin colour or treated areas of dark skin, stuffy or runny nose, tender, swollen glands in the neck, trouble swallowing, unusual tiredness or weakness and voice changes.
