Quick Overview

Synalar lotion (fluocinolone acetonide) is a topical steroid used to relieve inflammation, itching, redness, and discomfort from various skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis, allergic reactions, seborrhea, psoriasis, and lichen planus, reducing these symptoms by calming the skin's inflammatory response. It's for external use only and should be applied thinly as directed by a doctor, but generally avoided on the face, groin, or underarms unless specifically told to.
