What Is Triamcinolone Acetonide Lotion Used For?

I have a bottle of triamcinolone acetone lotion, usp. I m sure my doctor prescribed it for me, and now I can t remember why, because it s been sitting under my sink for a long time. As memory serves, I think it was because I told him that I have dandruff. Does that sound right? WebMD.com lists it as for eczema.
