If necessary, the use of the drug during lactation should resolve the issue with the doctor about stopping breastfeeding.

Dosage and administration

Outwardly.Grass is applied in a thin layer on the affected skin and lightly rubbed 2 times a day (morning and night).
After the regression of the inflammatory process, treatment by Herbalcort should be stopped and therapy should be continued with Travogen cream that does not contain GCS. This is important when applying the drug on the area of ​​the external genital organs and inguinal folds. The maximum duration of treatment is 2 weeks.

Adverse reactions

Travocort is usually well tolerated, even when applied to sensitive skin. In rare cases, skin irritation and allergic reactions may develop. Considering that Diflucortolone is part of the Travocort preparation, when applying the cream on large surfaces (more than 10% of the skin surface) for a long time (more than 4 weeks) and / or using an occlusive dressing, the appearance of side effects characteristic of GCS can occur: skin atrophy, telangiectasia, striae, acne-like dermatitis, perioral dermatitis, hypertrichosis, and systemic side effects (suppression of the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal system).
It is impossible to completely exclude the development of side effects (for example, a decrease in the function of the adrenal cortex) in newborns whose mothers received long-term treatment during pregnancy or lactation or applied the drug to large body surfaces.
