Can you use triamcinolone acetonide cream on a ringworm?
I've tried so many things to get rid of ringworms, and they don't really work. I have some cream that I was prescribed a few weeks ago called triamcinolone acetonide and I was wondering if i could use that on a ringworm.

Although a topical corticosteroid like triamcinolone is sometimes used to help relieve the itching, this should be avoided as much as possible. Steroids are never used as the only treatment in ringworm infections, as their use may worsen the infection and make the fungus more likely to spread into the hair follicles
The best med out there for ringworm is Terbinafine (Lamasil). You can buy the cream over the counter. Apply twice a day for 2-3 weeks. (Morning and night is easiest)
Also, how many ringworm marks do you have? If you have a cluster that has formed a plaque you need to see your doctor because you will need an oral med to treat it and a topical will not suffice.

Triamcinolone Acetonide Uses
NO... I ve been suffering from terrible itching for months. Two doctors prescribed triamciolone cream. Did not work. Did my own searching and figured it was a fungus infection. I have a rescue cat...might have gotten it from her. Anything that kills fungus works...lamisil has ringworm medicine which is over the counter. Shower...use apple cider vinegar on spots...the lamisil when dry.
Yes you can. I would try asking the local drug store first what they advise. If what they tell you to use them try the triamcinolone cream. Either way as long as you use as directed and it was prescribed to you, you'll be fine..
yes
