6. Additional information.

Nutrasona cream is an anti-inflammatory medication (a corticosteroid) for use on the skin.

Nutrasona cream reduces skin inflammation and allergic reactions, and excessive cell multiplication in the skin (hyperproliferation). Therefore, it reduces redness (erythema), fluid accumulation (edema), and exudate in inflamed skin. It also relieves itching, burning, or pain.

Nutrasonacreamis used in the treatment of acute forms of:

?Mild to moderate eczema related to an external cause, such as:

• • Allergic contact dermatitis due to a substance that has come into contact with the skin.
  • Irritant contact dermatitis due to substances commonly used, such as soap.
  • Itchy eruption on hands and feet (eczema dishidrotic).
  • Unspecified eczema (eczema vulgar).
• Eczema related to patient factors (endogenous eczema), such as atopic dermatitis or neurodermatitis.
• Eczema with inflammation and scaling on the skin (seborrheic eczema).
• Psoriasis.

Do not use Nutrasona cream

• If you are allergic (hypersensitive) to the active ingredient hydrocortisone buteprate or to any of the other components ofNutrasonacream (see also section 6. Additional information).
• If you have tuberculosis, syphilis, or viral infections (for example, chickenpox or herpes).
• In areas of skin affected by redness (rosacea), ulcers, inflammation of the sebaceous glands (acne), or skin diseases with skin thinning (atrophy).
• In areas of skin showing a vaccination reaction, that is, redness or inflammation after the vaccine.
• In specific inflammation of the skin around the upper lip and chin (perioral dermatitis).
• In bacterial or fungal infections (unless treated additionally with a specific treatment).
• In the eyes, in mucous membranes (for example, in the mouth) or in open wounds.

Be especially careful with Nutrasona cream

If your doctor diagnoses in addition a bacterial or fungal infection; then, you must also use the additional treatment prescribed for the infection, because if not, the infection may worsen.

Corticosteroids, such as the active ingredienthydrocortisone buteprate, have significant effects on the body. It is not recommended to use Nutrasona cream in extensive areas of the skin or for prolonged periods, because this significantly increases the risk of adverse effects.

To reduce the risk of adverse effects:

• Use it at the lowest possible dose, especially in children.
• Do not use this medication in children under 2 years and exercise caution in children and adolescents, because they have a higher probability of the corticosteroid passing through the skin and having adverse effects in other parts of the body, such as a syndrome characterized, among other symptoms, by obesity and increased pressure in the head.
• Use it only for the strictly necessary time to alleviate the skin condition.
• Nutrasonacreammust not come into contact with the eyes, mouth, open wounds, or mucous membranes (for example, the anal or genital area).
• Do not useNutrasonacreamin extensive areas of skin.
• Do not applyNutrasonacreamif you have circulatory problems, as it could ulcerate the area.
• Do not useNutrasonacreamunder impermeable materials to air and water, including bandages, dressings, clothing, or diapers, that are poorly breathable.
• If you are being treated for psoriasis, your doctor should frequently monitor your condition to observe any possible worsening.
• If you use Nutrasonacreamfor diseases other than those for which it has been prescribed, it may mask symptoms and make it difficult to diagnose and treat correctly.

Like all medications, Nutrasona cream may produce adverse effects, although not all people will experience them.

It is more likely that adverse effects will occur if anti-inflammatory medications (corticosteroids) are used in large areas, for prolonged periods, with bandages or occlusive materials, and in children.

The use of corticosteroids on the skin may lead to the following adverse effects:

• Skin thinning (atrophy)
• Dry or cracked skin
• Itching
• Redness (erythema)
• Appearance of red spots
• Folliculitis (inflammation of hair follicles)
• Stretch marks
• Acne
• Bruises
• Infections
• Delayed wound healing
• Specific skin inflammation around the upper lip and chin (perioral dermatitis).
• Contact dermatitis (skin allergic reaction)
• Changes in skin color
• Excessive hair growth
• Hair loss
• Adverse effects may occur not only in the treated area, but also in completely different areas of the body. This occurs if the active ingredient (a corticosteroid) passes into the body through the skin. This, for example, may increase eye pressure (glaucoma) or may cause increased blood pressure, fluid retention, hyperglycemia, hyperthyroidism, increased cholesterol, osteoporosis.

Unknown frequency (cannot be estimated from available data). Blurred vision
