Which one of the following statements about the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) with tacrolimus (Tac) ointment is not true?
Tac ointment can be used safely on facial lesions.
Tac ointment is at least as effective as 1% hydrocortisone ointment in the treatment of moderate AD.
Serum Tac levels must be monitored during topical Tac therapy of AD to avoid systemic adverse effects of Tac.
A common adverse effect of topical Tac treatment is stinging and burning at the application site.
The anti-inflammatory effects of Tac are likely mediated by calcineurin inhibition.
