what is triamcinolone cream used for

Triamcinolone cream is a topical corticosteroid used to reduce itching, redness, swelling, and inflammation from skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, and rashes. It can also be used for certain mouth sores in dental paste form, but the cream itself is mainly for the skin.
