The American Academy of Dermatology recommends that triamcinolone acetonide can be administered to individual inflammatory acne nodules as needed, with most nodules flattening within 48-72 hours 2

The American Academy of Dermatology lists contraindications to injection, including active infections at the injection site, previous hypersensitivity to triamcinolone, and active tuberculosis or systemic fungal infection 2
