Elosone Ht 2/0.1/0.025 % Cream 15 GM

Elosone-HT cream uses include various conditions/diseases:

• Hyperpigmentation: Elosone-HT cream is commonly used to treat hyperpigmentation or dark spots on the skin caused by sun damage, hormonal changes, or acne scars. Hydroquinone in the cream inhibits melanin production, the pigment responsible for skin colour, and helps lighten the dark patches.
• Melasma: Elosone-HT cream is also effective in treating melasma, a condition characterised by dark, irregular facial patches. The combination of hydroquinone, mometasone, and tretinoin works together to reduce melanin production, reduce inflammation, and improve skin texture.
• Acne: Elosone-HT cream is often prescribed to treat acne vulgaris, a common skin condition with pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. The tretinoin present in the cream helps to unclog pores, reducing the occurrence of acne. Additionally, the cream's mometasone helps reduce inflammation and redness associated with acne.
• Psoriasis: Elosone-HT cream is also used to treat psoriasis, a chronic skin condition characterised by red, scaly patches on the skin. The mometasone in the cream reduces inflammation, while the tretinoin promotes the growth of healthy skin cells, and the hydroquinone helps to lighten the dark patches.
• Eczema: Elosone-HT cream can also treat eczema, which causes the skin to become itchy, red, and inflamed. The mometasone present in the cream helps to reduce inflammation, while tretinoin and hydroquinone work to improve the overall texture and appearance of the skin.

It is important to note that Elosone-HT cream should only be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as prolonged use of hydroquinone can cause skin damage and discolouration. Avoid using it on broken or infected skin.

2. Overdose

• Remove the excess medicine with a tissue or cotton if you have applied excessive cream.

• Elosone-HT cream composition combines three active ingredients: hydroquinone, mometasone, and tretinoin.
• Hydroquinone is a skin-lightening agent that works by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its colour. It is particularly effective in treating hyperpigmentation and melasma, which cause dark patches on the skin. Hydroquinone blocks the enzyme tyrosinase, which is responsible for melanin production. It reduces the appearance of dark spots on the skin, making the skin appear brighter and more even-toned.
• Mometasone is a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and itching of the skin. It works by reducing the production of inflammatory chemicals in the body, thereby reducing inflammation and itching. Mometasone is particularly effective in treating dermatitis and eczema, characterised by redness, swelling, and skin itching.
• Tretinoin is a vitamin A used to treat acne and other skin conditions. It works by speeding up the skin cell turnover process, which helps to unclog pores and reduce the formation of acne. Tretinoin also helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production in the skin.
