Frequently Asked Questions
How long can I use Fluovix Plus?
Fluovix Plus is generally prescribed for short-term use, typically for 2 to 4 weeks. Prolonged use can increase the risk of side effects, such as skin thinning and adrenal suppression.
Can Fluovix Plus be used on the face?
Fluovix Plus can be used on the face only if specifically prescribed by your healthcare provider, as the face is more prone to side effects like skin thinning.
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. If it’s close to the time of your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double up doses.
Is Fluovix Plus safe for fungal infections?
Fluovix Plus can be effective for fungal infections only if the formulation includes an antifungal component. Consult your doctor before using it for fungal infections.
Can Fluovix Plus cause thinning of the skin?
Yes, prolonged use of potent corticosteroids like Fluovix Plus can cause skin thinning (atrophy), especially when applied to sensitive areas or over large body areas.
Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Fluovix Plus Work?
- Fluocinonide: A powerful corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, itching, and redness by inhibiting the production of inflammatory chemicals.
Additional Active Ingredient: Depending on the formulation, it may include an antifungal (to treat fungal infections), an antibiotic (to treat bacterial infections), or a moisturizer to enhance the healing of dry or damaged skin.
Common Dosages
For inflammatory and infected skin conditions: Apply a thin layer to the affected area 1 to 2 times daily, depending on the severity of the condition and the active ingredients in the product.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
- Secondary infections associated with these conditions, such as bacterial or fungal infections (when combined with an antibiotic or antifungal agent).
Who Shouldn't Take Fluovix Plus?
- Known hypersensitivity to fluocinonide or any other component of the formulation.
- Viral infections (e.g., herpes simplex, chickenpox).
- Fungal or bacterial infections unless an appropriate antifungal or antibiotic is included in the formulation.
Advice From The Pharmacist
- Apply sparingly to the affected areas and avoid using on large areas of the body or for prolonged periods without consulting your healthcare provider.
- Do not cover the treated area with a bandage unless advised by your doctor, as this may increase the amount of medication absorbed and lead to side effects.
- Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, or sensitive areas such as the groin or underarms unless directed by your doctor.
- Wash your hands after applying Fluovix Plus to avoid spreading it to other areas.

Risks and Warnings of Fluovix Plus
