About this product

Overview

Dermoquin Cream 2% contains Hydroquinone as the active ingredient. It belongs to a class of medications known as depigmenting agents, primarily used to lighten areas of darkened skin such as melasma, age spots, and hyperpigmentation caused by conditions like acne or eczema. Hydroquinone works by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, thereby leading to a gradual lightening of the affected skin.

Uses

Dermoquin Cream 2% is indicated for:

  • Treatment of hyperpigmentation disorders such as melasma, chloasma, freckles, and age spots.
  • Management of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation caused by conditions such as acne, eczema, or dermatitis.

Dosage and Administration

  • The dosage of Dermoquin Cream 2% may vary depending on the severity of the hyperpigmentation and the patient’s skin type.
  • It is usually applied topically to the affected areas of the skin, once or twice daily, as directed by a healthcare professional.
  • Prior to application, the affected skin should be cleansed and dried thoroughly.
  • Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected areas and gently massage it into the skin until fully absorbed.
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure and use sunscreen with a high SPF during treatment to prevent further darkening of the skin.

Precautions

  • Dermoquin Cream 2% should be used with caution in patients with sensitive skin or a history of allergic reactions to hydroquinone or other ingredients in the cream.
  • Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, or open wounds. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Discontinue use if irritation, redness, or itching occurs and consult a healthcare professional.
  • Inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are currently taking, including prescription, over-the-counter, herbal, or dietary supplements, before starting treatment with Dermoquin Cream 2%.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Dermoquin Cream 2% may include:

  • Mild skin irritation
  • Dryness or peeling of the skin
  • Redness or burning sensation at the application site
  • Temporary darkening of the treated skin (especially in patients with darker skin tones)

Less common but more serious side effects may include:

  • Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling
  • Severe skin irritation or blistering

If any adverse reactions occur or persist, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
