Triamcinolone acetonide injection of triamcinolone acetonide may be indicated for the control of severe or incapacitating allergic states for which conventional treatments have failed, such as asthma, atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, perennial or seasonal allergic rhinitis, serum sickness, and transfusion and drug hypersensitivity reactions.

Contact with infectious persons should be avoided during the entire course of treatment. Users who contract an infection during their regimen should contact their doctors to discuss whether to discontinue triamcinolone acetonide. Triamcinolone
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a condition characterised by an exaggerated response of the immune system (a hypersensitivity response) to the fungus "Aspergillus" (most commonly "Aspergillus fumigatus"). It occurs most often in people with asthma or cystic fibrosis. "Aspergillus" spores are ubiquitous in soil and are commonly found in the sputum of healthy individuals. "A. fumigatus" is responsible for a spectrum of lung diseases known as aspergilloses. ABPA causes airway inflammation, leading to bronchiectasis—a condition marked by abnormal dilation of the airways. Left untreated, the immune system and fungal spores can damage sensitive lung tissues and lead
