It helps reduce redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort associated with skin irritation. Commonly found in creams and ointments for mild to moderate skin inflammation. Also used in some ocular and otic preparations for inflammation relief in the eyes and ears. Its low systemic absorption makes it suitable for use in sensitive areas and for pediatric patients when appropriate.
