Like all medicines, Travocort can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
Common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people): skin irritation or burning feeling at the application site.
Uncommon (may affect up to 1 in 100 people): redness (erythema) or dryness at the application site, stretch marks (skin striae).
Not known (frequency cannot be estimated from the available data): itching (pruritus) or blisters (vesicles) at the application site.
As with other glucocorticoids that are applied to the skin, such as Travocort, the following local side effects may also occur: Frequency cannot be estimated from the available data: Thinning of the skin (skin atrophy), inflammation of hair follicles (folliculitis), increased body hair growth (hypertrichosis), expansion of small superficial blood vessels in the skin (telangiectasia), skin inflammation around the mouth (perioral dermatitis), changes in skin color, acne, and/or allergic skin reactions to any of the ingredients of Travocort. Since the ingredients of Travocort are absorbed by the body through the skin, further side effects to other parts of the body (systemic effects) may occur.
Side effects cannot be excluded in newborns whose mothers have been treated extensively or for a prolonged period of time during pregnancy or while breast-feeding. For example, the activity of the baby's adrenal glands may be reduced (reduced adrenocortical function) and so the baby's resistance to disease may be lowered.
Reporting of side effects: If any side effects are experienced, talk to the doctor or pharmacist. This includes any possible side effects not previously listed. By reporting side effects, more information can be provided on the safety of this medicine.
