Lorinden C® Ointment (Лоринден C) is a prescription topical medicinal product combining a moderately potent corticosteroid with an antimicrobial agent. Each gram contains flumetasone pivalate 0.2 mg and clioquinol 30 mg.

It is indicated for the local treatment of dry inflammatory skin conditions that respond to corticosteroids, particularly allergic inflammatory conditions complicated by bacterial infection and associated with persistent itching and excessive keratinization.

Flumetasone helps reduce inflammation, itching, and redness, while clioquinol has antibacterial activity against certain Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and mild antifungal activity.

Key Benefits & Indications

Lorinden C may be prescribed for inflammatory skin disorders complicated by susceptible microbial infection, including:

• Atopic dermatitis
• Seborrheic dermatitis
• Allergic contact eczema
• Chronic psoriasis
• Lichen planus
• Certain other dry, itchy, corticosteroid-responsive inflammatory skin conditions complicated by bacterial infection

It provides a combination of anti-inflammatory + anti-itch + antimicrobial activity in one topical ointment.

Active Ingredients

Flumetasone pivalate is a topical corticosteroid with moderately potent anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, and vasoconstrictive activity.

Clioquinol is an antimicrobial agent with antibacterial activity against certain bacteria and mild antifungal activity.

Full Ingredients

Active ingredients: Flumetasone Pivalate, Clioquinol.

Other ingredients: White Wax, White Petrolatum.

How to Use

Lorinden C should be used exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional.

Apply a thin layer to the affected skin according to the prescribing directions. Because this product contains a topical corticosteroid and antimicrobial agent, it should not be used more frequently, over larger areas, or for longer than directed.

Avoid prolonged use and inappropriate use under occlusive dressings because systemic corticosteroid absorption and the risk of clioquinol-related adverse effects can increase.

• Inflamed and itchy skin
