Triora Ointment contains Triamcinolone, which belongs to the class of ‘corticosteroids’. It is effectively used to treat various inflammatory skin diseases. It controls inflammation by acting on the immune system. It decreases the activity of the immune system by blocking white blood cells (WBC) from attacking the body cells (target cells). It reduces the release of chemicals that cause inflammation. This effect helps in reducing swelling, pain and discomfort.
