Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Texacort Work?

Texacort works by reducing inflammation, swelling, and itching. It inhibits the release of inflammatory substances in the skin, such as prostaglandins and histamines, and suppresses the immune response, which helps relieve symptoms of skin irritation and inflammation.

Common Dosages

  • 1% topical cream, ointment, or lotion
  • 2.5% topical cream or ointment

Typical Dosing

  • For skin conditions: Apply a thin layer of Texacort to the affected area 1 to 4 times daily as directed by your healthcare provider. The duration of treatment depends on the severity of the condition and response to treatment.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Dermatitis (including atopic and contact dermatitis)
  • Eczema
  • Psoriasis
  • Insect bites
  • Rashes due to allergic reactions or irritants
  • Skin inflammation from various causes

Who Shouldn't Take Texacort?

  • Known hypersensitivity to hydrocortisone or any of its components
  • Skin infections caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi (unless being treated with appropriate antimicrobial therapy)

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Apply Texacort only to the affected area, avoiding contact with the eyes, mouth, or open wounds. Wash your hands after applying unless your hands are the treated area.
  • Do not cover the treated area with bandages or dressings unless directed by your doctor, as this can increase absorption and the risk of side effects.
  • Use Texacort for the prescribed duration, and do not exceed the recommended number of applications to avoid potential side effects.
  • If no improvement is seen within a week, or if symptoms worsen, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Side Effects of Texacort

Common Side Effects

  • Mild skin irritation at the application site
  • Burning or stinging sensation
  • Dryness or cracking of the skin

Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Skin thinning (atrophy) with long-term use
  • Stretch marks (striae)
  • Increased susceptibility to skin infections
  • Allergic reactions (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing)

Risks and Warnings of Texacort

  • Overuse: Prolonged or excessive use of Texacort can lead to thinning of the skin, stretch marks, and increased risk of infections.
  • Systemic absorption: While rare with topical use, systemic absorption of corticosteroids can occur, particularly when used on large areas of the body or under occlusive dressings. This may lead to side effects such as adrenal suppression.
  • Children: Texacort should be used with caution in children, as they are more susceptible to side effects like skin thinning and adrenal suppression.

Interactions with Texacort

Common Drug Interactions

  • Other topical medications: Using multiple topical medications simultaneously may increase the risk of irritation or reduce the effectiveness of Texacort.
  • Immunosuppressive drugs: Caution is advised when combining topical corticosteroids with immunosuppressive drugs, as this may increase the risk of infections.

Alternatives to Texacort

  • Triamcinolone acetonide: A medium-strength topical corticosteroid used for inflammatory skin conditions.
  • Betamethasone: A stronger corticosteroid for more severe skin inflammation.
  • Calamine lotion: A non-steroidal alternative for mild itching and irritation.
  • Tacrolimus or pimecrolimus: Topical calcineurin inhibitors used for conditions like eczema without the risk of skin thinning.
