Safety Precautions for Lidex (fluocinonide)

Before you take Lidex (fluocinonide), tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or think you might be pregnant, or if you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. You should also inform your healthcare provider if you have other inflammatory skin conditions caused by poor circulation, such as stasis dermatitis or chronic leg ulcers.

Additionally, tell your provider if you have adrenal gland problems, as Lidex can affect adrenal gland function. If you are currently taking or have previously taken other corticosteroid medications, using multiple corticosteroids may increase the risk of adrenal gland issues. If you have eye problems, such as cataracts, or notice any changes in your vision, it is important to talk to your doctor. Cataracts have been linked to topical corticosteroids.

Do not use Lidex in or near your eyes, and if it gets into your eyes, flush with cold water immediately. You should also let your healthcare provider know if you have liver problems or have a skin infection.
