What is Locoid?

Locoid Lotion is an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) approved medication manufactured by Triax Pharmaceuticals, LLC. Locoid Lotion is a topical steroid (corticosteroid) indicated for the topical treatment of mild to moderate skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis (eczema) in patients 3 months of age and older.

What doses of Locoid are available?

Locoid Lotion is available in lotion form, in the following doses: 0.1% (1 mg/g), supplied in bottles of 2 fl. oz. and 4 fl. oz.

Apply a thin layer to the affected area two times daily. Discontinue when control is achieved and reassess diagnosis if no improvement is seen within 2 weeks. Before prescribing for more than 2 weeks, any additional benefits of extending treatment to 4 weeks should be weighed against the risk of HPA axis suppression and local adverse events. The safety and efficacy of Locoid Lotion have not been established beyond 4 weeks of use. Avoid use under occlusive dressings or in the diaper area. Locoid Lotion is not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use.

Always speak with a healthcare professional for medical advice about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.
