Viotopic 0.1% Oint 30G

Viotopic 0.1% Oint 30G is a medication used to treat skin inflammations caused by conditions such as atopic dermatitis (eczema) and contact dermatitis. This ointment belongs to a class of medications known as topical immunomodulators. It works by reducing inflammation and itching, helping to improve the skin condition.

Viotopic contains the active ingredient tacrolimus, which works by inhibiting the activity of immune cells responsible for inflammation. By reducing the immune response, this ointment helps alleviate symptoms associated with skin inflammations. Viotopic is considered an effective option for patients who cannot use corticosteroids or who experience undesirable side effects from these medications. It is also used in certain cases of chronic dermatitis.
