Important information about Tazorac Cream

The active ingredient in Tazorac Cream is tazarotene. As a retinoid, tazarotene works by regulating skin cell growth to help reduce inflammation and itching.

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 Tazorac Cream. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Tazorac Cream:

  • Tazorac Cream is typically used once a day in the evening. A thin layer should be applied to the affected areas. Do not use near the eyes, mouth, or genital area. It is for external use only.
  • If used for acne vulgaris, only apply a thin film of Tazorac cream to the acne lesions. Do not apply to unaffected skin. Avoid use with other acne treatments like benzoyl peroxide.
  • If used for psoriasis, a lotion or cream can be used about 1 hour before Tazorac Cream to soften plaques. Limit use to lesions and do not apply to unaffected skin.
  • To manage dryness, use a moisturizer as frequently as needed. If you experience severe irritation or irritation that does not improve with use, speak to your healthcare practitioner. They will know what is best to recommend for you.
  • Tazorac Cream can increase the sensitivity of your skin to the sun. Sunlight exposure should be avoided, including sunlamps and tanning beds. Using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 as part of your daily skincare regimen will help prevent sunburn. Wearing protective clothing like long sleeves or a hat will also help protect your skin from the sun. Some other medications that you take or use may also increase your sensitivity to the sun, and your healthcare practitioner may recommend not taking them together.
  • Since Tazorac Cream can cause harm to the unborn child, females of childbearing potential may need to provide a negative pregnancy test 2 weeks before use and start Tazorac Cream during their menstrual period. Regular use of birth control will also be required for the entire duration of use of this medication.
  • If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular application schedule. Do not use a double dose to make up for a missed one.

The most common side effects of Tazorac Cream seen in clinical trials include:

  • Itching
  • Redness
  • Burning sensation
  • Peeling or dry skin

Some individuals may experience serious side effects while using Tazorac 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:

  • Signs of severe skin irritation or dermatitis such as blistering or severe itching, skin rash, burning, redness, discoloration, or peeling of the skin that does not improve over time with continued use
  • Signs of a severe allergic reaction such as hives, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face or eyes

-Increased sensitivity to the sun and risk of sunburn

These are not all of the possible side effects of Tazorac 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 Tazorac 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:

  • Eczema or any other skin conditions
  • Are pregnant or planning to become pregnant
  • Are breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed

Do not use Tazorac Cream if you have any of the following:

  • Are pregnant or planning to become pregnant
  • Have an allergy to tazarotene or any of the other ingredients found in Tazorac Cream

It may take several weeks of consistent Tazorac use before you start to see improvements.

When Tazorac Cream is used 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.

Females that can become pregnant will need to provide a negative pregnancy test 2 weeks before starting Tazorac Cream.
