What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

Cyclocort cream uses:

Cyclocort is a cream used on the skin to treat certain skin conditions.

Directions

Cyclocort cream should be used as instructed by your doctor. Any questions or concerns about the medication may be referred to your doctor or pharmacist. The minimum effective quantity should be applied for the shortest amount of time.

Recommended dosage:

A thin layer should be applied and gently rubbed into the affected area(s) of the skin once or twice daily.

Cyclocort should not be used for more than 5 days on the face, armpit, scrotum, and scalp.

Cyclocort should not be used for more than 2 to 3 weeks on the body.

Occlusive dressings should be avoided while using Cyclocort cream.

Cyclocort should be avoided in or around the eyes, mouth, or vagina.

Ingredients

Amcinonide is the active ingredient in Cyclocort. Benzyl alcohol, emulsifying wax, glycerin, isopropyl palmitate, lactic acid, purified water, and sorbitol solution are the inactive ingredients.

Contraindications

Patients with the following should not use Cyclocort:

  • an allergy to Cyclocort or other corticosteroids
  • viral skin lesions
  • bacterial or fungal skin infections
  • parasitic infections
  • skin conditions related to tuberculosis or syphilis
  • eruptions after receiving vaccinations
  • itching without inflammation
  • skin inflammation around the mouth

  • acne
  • perianal and genital itching

Cyclocort should not be used in the eye.

Cautions

  • Before you start treatment with Cyclocort, inform your doctor of:
  • All the medications you use, including other topical products
  • Your allergies
  • Your current health conditions
  • Your past medical history
  • Your pregnancy or breastfeeding status
  • Patients with chronic leg ulcers or skin diseases with impaired circulation should exercise caution when using Cyclocort.
  • Topical corticosteroids can cause Cushing’s syndrome and reversible hypothalamic pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis suppression can occur due to systemic absorption, which can lead to glucocorticoid insufficiency. Systemic absorption can be increased by using Cyclocort cream over large body surface areas or where two skin areas touch, using Cyclocort for a long duration, using Cyclocort cream often, applying the Cyclocort to thin skin areas or on broken skin, or using occlusive dressings.
  • Topical corticosteroids can increase the risk of infections. If a skin infection develops, Cyclocort should be discontinued and treatment should be started.
  • Patients with eye lesions should exercise caution when using Cyclocort. Increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, or cataracts may occur due to systemic absorption of the cream.
  • Cyclocort cream can cause allergic reactions.
  • Patients with psoriasis should exercise caution when using Cyclocort.
  • Using topical corticosteroids for a long time can cause indented, red streaks on the skin or skin breakdown.

Side Effects

Eye problems, stomach pain, application site irritation or pain, allergic reactions, secondary infection, decreased glucose tolerance, skin disorders, and blood clots are some Cyclocort side effects. Other side effects can also occur, so immediately call your doctor if you develop bothersome or persistent side effects.
