Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Tacrolimus 0.03%/Azelastine HCl 0.1% Topical Gel is a compounded formulation designed to treat a variety of skin conditions. This unique combination medication brings together the immunosuppressive properties of tacrolimus and the antihistamine effects of azelastine hydrochloride. It is particularly effective in managing conditions such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and other inflammatory skin disorders.

Tacrolimus functions by suppressing the immune system, thereby reducing inflammation and itching associated with various skin conditions. On the other hand, azelastine hydrochloride works by inhibiting the action of histamine, a compound involved in local immune responses, which helps to alleviate symptoms such as redness, swelling, and itching.

This medication is a semisolid formulation that is dispensed through a pump mechanism. This design facilitates easy and precise application on the skin, allowing for targeted treatment or absorption of the active ingredients. The gel-like consistency of the medication ensures it adheres well to the skin, enhancing its effectiveness.

It is crucial to use Tacrolimus 0.03%/Azelastine HCl 0.1% Topical Gel as directed by your healthcare provider. Overuse or underuse can lead to suboptimal results or potential side effects. Always follow the prescribed dosage and application instructions for the best outcome.

Drug Interactions

Tacrolimus 0.03%/Azelastine HCl 0.1% Topical Gel is a compounded formulation designed for targeted treatment of atopic dermatitis, allergic conjunctivitis, and allergic rhinitis. This semisolid formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. The gel-like consistency aids in the absorption of the active ingredients, tacrolimus and azelastine.

Tacrolimus, an immunosuppressant, works by inhibiting the production of certain inflammatory cytokines, while azelastine, an antihistamine, blocks the action of histamine, a chemical released by the body during an allergic reaction. Together, these ingredients work to alleviate the symptoms associated with these conditions.

It is important to note that this formulation is not recommended for use in patients with a known hypersensitivity to either tacrolimus or azelastine. Additionally, this formulation should not be used in the eyes or on the face. Patients should be advised to avoid contact with the eyes and to wash their hands after application.

While using this formulation, patients may experience local irritation, burning, stinging, or itching. It is crucial to use the medication as directed and not exceed the recommended dose. Patients should be monitored for signs of systemic absorption, including changes in blood pressure, heart rate, and electrolyte levels. Monitoring for signs of infection, such as fever, chills, and sore throat, is also necessary.
