When your skin becomes inflamed, it often gets itchy. The more you itch, the worse its condition becomes. The worse it becomes, the itchier it gets. Many of you have surely experienced this seemingly never ending cycle first-hand. Did you know that the origin of this itch is the skin inflammation itself? Scratching inflamed skin will do nothing but contribute to the cycle of aggravation. So naturally, the key to breaking the cycle is to suppress the inflammation. One of the main characteristics of FLUCORT f is its anti-inflammatory properties. This topical steroid ointment/cream uses one of the most powerful anti-inflammatory agents, fluocinolone acetonide, available at drug stores in Japan. It can be used to treat eczema, rashes, dermatitis, and more.

By over-scratching the affected area it’s easy to tear the skin, leading to the introduction of infection-causing bacteria. One of the most notable characteristics of FLUCORT f is that it also contains the antibiotic ingredient fradiomycin sulfate, which helps defend against infection. If you've been struggling to get rid of any stubborn skin problems, why not give FLUCORT f a try?
