(Fluocinonide)

The active ingredient in Lidex Cream is fluocinonide. Fluocinonide is a high-potency topical corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by affecting the immune response in the skin. It helps decrease redness, swelling, and itching by limiting the release of substances that cause irritation.

Follow all directions given to you by your doctor and read all documents provided, including the full Prescribing Information, FDA-Approved Product Labeling, Instructions for Use, and Medication Guide before using Lidex Cream. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Lidex Cream:

• Apply a thin layer of Lidex Cream to the affected area as directed by your healthcare provider, usually one to two times daily. Gently rub it into the skin.
• Wash your hands before and after use, unless you are treating your hands. Avoid applying to the face, groin, or underarms unless instructed by your healthcare provider.
• Do not cover the treated area with occlusive dressings, bandages, or plastic pants unless directed, as this may increase absorption and side effects.
• Avoid use in the diaper area unless specifically directed, as tight-fitting diapers can act like occlusive dressings.
• If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. If it is close to your next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not apply extra to make up for a missed dose.
• Use Lidex Cream only on the skin and avoid contact with the eyes. Prolonged use or use over large skin areas may increase the risk of systemic side effects.
• Children may absorb more of the medication through the skin, which may increase the risk of side effects. Use caution when applying in pediatric patients.

Some mild or common side effects of Lidex Cream seen in clinical trials as compared to placebo include:

• Skin dryness.
• Burning or stinging.
• Skin irritation.
• Itching.
• Changes in skin color.

Some individuals may experience serious side effects while using Lidex Cream. These side effects may require immediate medical attention. If you experience any of the following, contact your healthcare provider or seek emergency medical help:

• Severe skin infection or worsening skin condition.
• Unusual hair growth.

• Signs of systemic absorption - weight gain, high blood sugar, symptoms of Cushing's syndrome.

These are not all of the possible side effects of Lidex Cream. You should always seek medical advice from your healthcare provider for any questions or concerns about your medical condition or treatment. Read all patient information, medication guides, or drug information sheets that come with this medication. You can also report adverse effects to the Food and Drug Administration at www.fda.gov/medwatch or 1-800-FDA-1088.

Before starting Lidex Cream, it is crucial to discuss any existing health conditions with your healthcare provider. You should be sure that your healthcare provider is aware of all your medical conditions, including if you have:

• Skin infections.
• Diabetes or high blood sugar.
• Thinning skin or stretch marks.
• Adrenal gland problems.
• Any allergic reaction to corticosteroids.

Lidex Cream should not be used in individuals who have had an allergic reaction to fluocinonide or any components of the formulation. It should also not be used on untreated bacterial, fungal, or viral skin infections unless directed by a healthcare provider.

Some improvement may be seen within a few days of starting treatment. However, the full effect may take up to 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the condition being treated. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and do not use the medication longer than prescribed.

When Lidex Cream is taken with other prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and supplements, it may change how they work or increase the frequency or severity of side effects. Make sure that you tell your healthcare professional about anything that you are taking to avoid any negative drug interactions, including:

• Other topical corticosteroids.
• Skin products that may irritate the skin.
• Certain supplements applied to the skin.

Lidex Cream is available in a 0.05% fluocinonide formulation. Other dosage forms, such as topical solution or ointment, may also be available depending on your needs.
