What is diflorasone topical?

Diflorasone is a topical steroid. It reduces or inhibits the actions of chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, redness, and swelling.

Diflorasone is used to treat inflammation caused by a number of conditions such as allergic reactions, eczema, and psoriasis.

Diflorasone topical may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

What is the most important information I should know about diflorasone topical?

Do not use plastic bandages, dressings, or diapers that do not allow air to circulate to the area unless your doctor directs you to do so. The use of occlusive dressings can greatly increase the amount of drug the body absorbs. If you do use an occlusive dressing, do not use it for more than 12 hours a day.

Do not use diflorasone topical to treat any area of the body that it is not prescribed for. This could be dangerous.

Do not use diflorasone topical to treat a child, unless it is prescribed by a doctor for the child. Children are more sensitive to the effects of diflorasone topical.

What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before using diflorasone topical?

Return to your doctor if the condition does not improve or if it gets worse. Diflorasone topical alone will not treat the condition if it is an infection.

Diflorasone is in the FDA pregnancy category C. This means that it is not known whether it will be harmful to an unborn baby. Do not use diflorasone topical without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant or could become pregnant during treatment. If it is necessary to use diflorasone during pregnancy, the smallest amount possible should be applied for the shortest time necessary to treat the condition under the supervision of a doctor.

How should I use diflorasone topical?

Apply the medication exactly as directed by your doctor. If you do not understand these directions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you.

Wash your hands before and after each application, unless you are using diflorasone topical to treat a hand condition.

Apply a small amount to the affected area and rub it gently into the skin.

Use caution on areas where the skin creases, such as armpits, knees, and elbows. These areas may absorb more medication. Also avoid the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes.

If you need to protect the area, it can be covered with a breathable cotton gauze dressing. Avoid using plastic, occlusive dressings that do not allow air to circulate to the area. Plastic pants and diapers may be harmful if used over diflorasone on a child.

Do not use diflorasone topical to treat any area of the body that it is not prescribed for. This could be dangerous.

It is important to use diflorasone regularly to get the most benefit.

Store diflorasone topical at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?

Apply the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for the next dose however, skip the dose you missed and apply the next regularly scheduled dose. Do not use a double dose of this medication unless otherwise directed by your doctor.

What happens if I overdose?

An overdose of diflorasone is not likely to threaten life. If the medication is ingested, or if a large amount is used over a large area and side effects are being experienced, call an emergency room or a poison control center for advice.

What should I avoid while using diflorasone topical?

Do not use plastic bandages, dressings, or diapers that do not allow air to circulate to the area unless your doctor directs you to do so. The use of occlusive dressings can greatly increase the amount of drug the body absorbs. If you do use an occlusive dressing, do not use it for more than 12 hours a day.
