Frequently asked questions

What is Flutivate 0.005% Ointment? What is it used for?

Flutivate 0.005% Ointment belongs to a group of medicines called steroids, also known as corticosteroids. Flutivate 0.005% Ointment is used to treat various allergic skin conditions such as eczema and atopic dermatitis. Flutivate 0.005% Ointment effectively reduces symptoms associated with such conditions, such as swelling, itching, and redness.

Is Flutivate 0.005% Ointment good for burns?

No, Flutivate 0.005% Ointment should never be applied in those areas of the skin that have burns, cuts, or scrapes. If Flutivate 0.005% Ointment accidentally gets onto such areas, rinse the area thoroughly with water. You should use this medicine only as directed by your doctor to avoid any adverse effects and worsening of your condition.

Can I use Flutivate 0.005% Ointment on my face, groin, or underarms?

No. Flutivate 0.005% Ointment should not be used on the face, groin, or underarms unless your doctor specifically tells you to do so. These areas absorb corticosteroids more easily, which increases the risk of skin thinning, irritation, and other side effects.

Is Flutivate 0.005% Ointment safe for children?

No. This medicine is not recommended for use in children. Children absorb more steroids through the skin than adults, which puts them at a higher risk of growth problems, hormone suppression, and other serious side effects.

Why is covering or wrapping the treated skin not allowed?

Covering or tightly wrapping the treated area can cause more of the medicine to pass through the skin into the bloodstream, increasing the risk of side effects such as adrenal suppression and skin damage. You should only cover the area if your doctor specifically tells you to.
