Indications
Derma-Smoothe/FS Scalp Oil is a medication used for the treatment of scalp psoriasis. It contains fluocinolone, which helps reduce swelling, itching, and redness that occur with this condition.
Derma-Smoothe/FS Scalp Oil is applied to wet hair and scalp, and a thin film is massaged onto the scalp. It is available as a low to medium-potency corticosteroid.
Derma-Smoothe/FS Scalp Oil is not a cure for scalp psoriasis but can help to alleviate symptoms.
Use and Dosage
Shake well before each use. Use this medication on the scalp only.
Wet hair and scalp thoroughly before applying the medication. Apply a thin film to the scalp and massage well. Cover the scalp with the shower cap provided for at least 4 hours or overnight. Afterwards, wash off the medication with regular shampoo and rinse well.
After applying the medication, wash your hands. Avoid getting this medication in the eyes, nose, or mouth. If you get the medication in these areas, rinse with plenty of water. Do not use this medication on your face, underarm, or groin area.
Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same time each day.
Inform your doctor if your condition lasts or gets worse after 2 weeks.

Cautions
Before using fluocinolone, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to other corticosteroids (such as hydrocortisone, or prednisone); or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients (such as peanut oil), which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details.
Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history.
Do not use it if there is an infection or sore in the area to be treated. Skin infections can become worse when this medication is used. Notify your doctor promptly if redness, swelling, or irritation does not improve.
Rarely, using corticosteroid medications for a long time or over large areas of skin can make it more difficult for your body to respond to physical stress. Before having surgery or emergency treatment, or if you get a serious illness/injury, tell your doctor or dentist that you are using this medication or have used this medication within the past few months.
Though it is unlikely, this medication may temporarily slow down a child’s growth if used for a long time. See the doctor regularly so your child’s height can be checked.
During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when needed. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor.
It is unknown if this drug passes into breast milk when applied to the skin. Similar medications pass into breast milk when taken by mouth. Consult your doctor before breastfeeding.
