Triamcincolone dental paste

I have mouth ulcer inside my mouth and my doctor prescribed triamcincolone dental paste to put on it for 7 days. I did swallow a small amount twice a day as it is put in my mouth. I am concerned it is immunosuppressive. I think local use of steroid isnudu My hep b status is inactive. Thanks for any advice.

Did you tell them about your status?  Likely okay but I'd ask either the doctor OR a pharmacist.  https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/drugs/18995-triamcinolone-dental-paste  info on it in the link

I did yesterday and the doctor said that it should be ok for 7 days for a very small amount. Thanks for your kind reply.

Sorry, not 'nudu', I think using local steroid is ok for inactive hep b carrier.
