Tazorac

Tazorac should be applied to the skin. First, wash your hands and gently cleanse your skin. When your skin has dried completely, apply a thin film of the gel or cream and gently rub it into the affected area. You may use it once a day in the evening, but make sure to use Tazorac as directed by your doctor.

If you are using the foam version, make sure to shake the can before each use.

Always wash your hands after applying this medication. If you are using Tazorac to treat your hands, make sure that you don't touch your eyes. Store Tazorac at room temperature.

Tazorac is only available by prescription, and it can be found easily at most pharmacies. There is no generic version available. Talk to your doctor if you think Tazorac might be right for you.

Like any other prescription, Tazorac may not be right for you, so make sure to consult with a doctor before taking it. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or may become pregnant, do not take Tazorac.

Tell your doctor if you are allergic to vitamin A or vitamin-A related drugs like retinoids, or if you have any other allergies. Let your doctor know about your medical history, especially of skin conditions such as eczema or sun sensitivity.

Tazorac may make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Apply sunscreen, limit your outdoor time, and wear protective clothing. Protect your skin from other weather extremes such as cold or wind too, as they could irritate your skin. Finally, avoid waxing, chemical depilatories, or electrolysis for hair removal in the area where you apply the product.

Like any prescription medication, you may experience some side effects of Tazorac. These could include dry skin, redness, irritation, itching, or stinging and burning. Fortunately, these are relatively mild and not too bothersome. If these effects last or get worse, let your doctor know.

However, you should let your doctor know right away if you experience severe side effects such as severe peeling, irritation, or redness at the application site, or if you have symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including severe dizziness, itching/swelling of the throat, tongue, or face, or trouble breathing.

Retinoids like Tazorac encourage the growth of new skin cells, which means that your skin regenerates more quickly. Retinoids can also improve skin texture, sun damage, and wrinkles with regular use. In short, retinoids do great things for your skin!

Tazorac is the name brand for a drug that's called tazarotene, so in a word, yes: they are the same thing.

Tazorac should not be used in combination with medications, cosmetics, or other products that have a strong drying effect on your skin.
