Medexil represents a significant advancement in the management of moderate-to-severe chronic dermatitis, offering targeted, prescription-strength relief where conventional therapies fall short. Formulated with a unique, patented corticosteroid complex, it provides potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive action directly at the site of inflammation, minimizing systemic exposure. Clinical studies demonstrate a marked improvement in scaling, erythema, and pruritus within days of initiation, making it a cornerstone therapy for dermatologists and primary care providers managing stubborn inflammatory skin conditions. Its optimized vehicle ensures enhanced skin penetration while maintaining an excellent safety profile for long-term maintenance therapy.

Common use
Medexil is primarily indicated for the treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis, allergic contact dermatitis, and nummular eczema in patients 12 years and older. It is particularly effective in cases where mid-potency corticosteroids have provided insufficient relief. Dermatologists frequently prescribe Medexil for management of chronic hand eczema, lichen simplex chronicus, and psoriasis in intertriginous areas. The medication may be used as monotherapy or in combination with systemic treatments for severe, widespread involvement. Many practitioners utilize Medexil as a weekend therapy for maintenance after achieving initial control with more frequent application.
Dosage and direction
Apply a thin film of Medexil to affected areas twice daily, typically in the morning and evening. Gently cleanse and dry the skin before application. Use the smallest amount necessary to cover the affected area lightly; approximately 0.5g (a pea-sized amount) should suffice for an area the size of an adult palm. Rub gently until absorbed. Wash hands after application unless treating hands. Treatment duration should not exceed 4 weeks continuously without physician reassessment. For maintenance therapy, many clinicians recommend twice-weekly application to previously affected areas to prevent recurrence. Do not use under occlusive dressings unless specifically directed by a healthcare provider.
Precautions
Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and broken skin. Do not use on rosacea, acne, or perioral dermatitis. Use with caution on the face, groin, and axillae due to increased absorption in these areas. Monitor for signs of skin atrophy including shininess, telangiectasias, or hypopigmentation with prolonged use. Patients should report any lack of improvement after 2 weeks of treatment or worsening of condition. Diabetic patients should monitor blood glucose more closely as topical corticosteroids can potentially affect glycemic control. Pregnancy Category C: use only if potential benefit justifies potential risk to fetus.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to fluticasone propionate or any component of the formulation. Contraindicated in patients with viral skin infections (herpes simplex, varicella), fungal infections, or untreated bacterial skin infections. Should not be used on tuberculous or syphilitic skin lesions. Not recommended for use in children under 12 years of age. Avoid use in patients with circulatory disorders that might be exacerbated by vasoconstriction. Contraindicated in patients with widespread plaque psoriasis until evaluated by a dermatologist due to risk of rebound flare.
Possible side effect
Most common: mild burning or stinging at application site (typically resolves within first week of use). Less frequent: skin dryness, itching, or irritation. With prolonged use: skin atrophy, striae, telangiectasia, hypopigmentation, hypertrichosis. Rare: contact dermatitis, folliculitis, acneiform eruptions. Systemic absorption may rarely cause hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression manifesting as fatigue, weakness, nausea, hypotension, or hyperglycemia. Allergic reactions including urticaria and angioedema are extremely uncommon but require immediate discontinuation.
Drug interaction
No clinically significant drug interactions have been documented with topical application. However, theoretical potential exists for interactions with other corticosteroids administered by any route. Caution advised when using with other potentially immunosuppressive agents. No known interactions with CYP450 substrates. Patients using other topical medications should apply Medexil first and allow complete absorption before applying additional products.
Missed dose
Apply as soon as remembered unless it is nearly time for the next scheduled dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed application. Maintain regular application schedule to ensure consistent therapeutic effect. If multiple doses are missed, contact your healthcare provider for guidance on reinitiating therapy.
Overdose
Acute overdose is unlikely due to topical administration. However, excessive or prolonged use can lead to significant systemic absorption with potential for corticosteroid side effects including Cushing’s syndrome, hyperglycemia, and adrenal suppression. Treatment involves discontinuation of medication and supportive care. In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical attention immediately as systemic effects may occur.
Storage
Store at room temperature (15-30°C). Do not freeze. Keep tube tightly closed when not in use. Protect from excessive heat and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not use after expiration date printed on packaging. Do not transfer to other containers.
