Metacortil Lite Cream is a topical medicine.

Active Ingredients: Hydroquinone, Mometasone, and Tretinoin.

• Hydroquinone inhibits the enzyme tyrosinase responsible for melanin production, leading to skin depigmentation.

• Mometasone belongs to a class of medications called corticosteroids. It helps alleviate itching, swelling, and irritation caused by eczema and psoriasis.

• Tretinoin is a retinoid that promotes the shedding of dead skin cells and stimulates the growth of new cells, improving skin texture and reducing pigmentation.

Together, these ingredients help manage melasma and other hyperpigmented skin conditions.
