MELANOCYL OINTMENT

MELANOCYL OINTMENT belongs to the dermatological medication class primarily used in treating vitiligo. Skin cells or melanocytes are responsible for making skin colour by producing melanin. In vitiligo, melanocytes lose their function or are destroyed, leaving white patches on the skin. Vitiligo can affect any skin area; however, it typically affects the face, neck, hands, and skin creases.

MELANOCYL OINTMENT is a combination of two drugs: Methoxsalen and Aminobenzoic Acid. MELANOCYL OINTMENT helps melanocytes to resume their natural function, resulting in uniform natural skin colour. Thereby, MELANOCYL OINTMENT helps in treating vitiligo. MELANOCYL OINTMENT protects against sunburn and helps to prevent premature skin ageing. It also regulates the overgrowth of skin cells and decreases the proliferation of cells.

Apply the ointment to the skin as directed by your doctor. Irritation, burning sensation, itching, and redness of the skin at the application site are the common side effects of MELANOCYL OINTMENT. These side effects do not necessitate medical treatment and will fade away with time. Do not hesitate to contact your doctor if these side effects persist.

Do not use MELANOCYL OINTMENT without the doctor's advice if you have a skin reaction or irritation to any medicine. Consult your doctor before using MELANOCYL OINTMENT if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use MELANOCYL OINTMENT for more than the prescribed doses as it may cause adverse effects. Do not wrap or cover the application site or treated area with a bandage unless advised by your doctor. Avoid contact of MELANOCYL OINTMENT with your eyes, nose or mouth. If contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
