Cantharidin 0.7% – Solution 15mL

Here are the main uses:

1. Treatment of Skin Inflammation: Betamethasone is a potent corticosteroid that is used for its anti- inflammatory and immunosuppressive abilities. It can help reduce the symptoms of conditions like eczema, dermatitis, allergies, and rashes, including redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort.

2. Fungal Infections: Iodochlorhydroxyquin is an antifungal medication that works by stopping the growth of fungus. It is used to treat skin infections such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. It can also be used to prevent these conditions from recurring.

3. Skin Discoloration: This combination can also be used to treat skin discoloration and other skin problems that are responsive to corticosteroids and iodochlorhydroxyquin.

4. Psoriasis: Betamethasone can be used to help reduce the symptoms of psoriasis, a skin condition that causes skin cells to multiply faster than normal, resulting in red, itchy, and scaly patches.

5. Pruritus: The anti-inflammatory properties of Betamethasone can also help to alleviate pruritus, or severe itching of the skin.

This product contains 2 drugs (betamethasone and calcipotriene) and is used to treat psoriasis of the scalp. Some brands of this medication are also used to treat psoriasis on the body. Betamethasone is a very strong corticosteroid drug that helps decrease the swelling, redness, and itching of the skin that occurs with this condition. Calcipotriene, which is also known as calcipotriol in other countries, is  a form of vitamin D. It works by slowing down the growth of skin cells so that they do not build up into thickened, scaly skin patches. This medication should not be used if you have certain types of psoriasis (skin patches with pus-filled blisters, psoriasis with intense redness/shedding/oozing).

Consult your doctor for more information. This product is not recommended for use in children

because they may be at an increased risk for side effects.

Betamethasone 0.08%, Calcipotriene 0.006%, and Niacinamide 5% - Anhydrous Topical Gel is primarily used in the treatment of psoriasis. Here's a more detailed explanation of each component's function:

1. Betamethasone: This is a potent corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation, itching, and redness. It's commonly used in the treatment of various skin conditions, including eczema, dermatitis, allergies, and rash. In the case of psoriasis, it helps to reduce the swelling, itching, and redness that occur.

2. Calcipotriene: This is a form of vitamin D. It works by slowing down the growth of skin cells. This is beneficial in psoriasis, where the skin cells rapidly reproduce, leading to thick, scaly patches.

3. Niacinamide: Also known as vitamin B3, it has anti-inflammatory properties. It can help reduce redness and swelling, improve the texture of the skin, and enhance its overall appearance. It may also help to reduce the symptoms of psoriasis.

Brimonidine 0.4%, Niacinamide 2% Topical Gel is used primarily for the treatment of rosacea, a chronic skin condition that causes redness and visible blood vessels in the face.

Brimonidine is an alpha-agonist that works by constricting the blood vessels in the skin, thereby reducing redness and flushing. It provides temporary relief for the redness in the face caused by rosacea but does not reduce the number of flare-ups.

Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, has anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce the redness and swelling associated with rosacea. It also helps in strengthening the skin's barrier function, improving skin texture, and reducing the appearance of pores.

Calcipotriene 0.004% Anhydrous Topical Gel is a synthetic form of vitamin D used in the treatment of plaque psoriasis, a skin disorder characterized by patches of skin that are red, itchy, and scaly.

The medication works by controlling the excessive growth of skin cells seen in psoriasis, thereby helping to reduce the scaling and redness associated with this condition. It's important to note that Calcipotriene does not cure psoriasis, but it can help manage the symptoms.

It's applied topically, usually once or twice a day or as directed by a healthcare professional. It's essential to use this medication as prescribed, and not to use more than recommended, as excessive use may result in elevated blood calcium levels.

While Calcipotriene can be very effective, it may cause side effects such as skin irritation, itching, or sensitivity to sunlight in some patients. If these persist or worsen, a healthcare professional should be consulted.

As always, before starting any new medication, it's important to discuss your medical history and any other medications you are taking with your healthcare provider.

Cantharidin 0.7% solution is a topical medication primarily used in dermatology to treat a variety of skin conditions. Here are some key uses:

1. Molluscum Contagiosum: This is a common skin infection caused by a virus, which results in raised, pearl-like nodules or papules on the skin. Cantharidin is often used to treat this condition due to its ability to cause blistering and subsequently help in the removal of the lesions.

2. Warts: Cantharidin is frequently used to treat warts, particularly those that are difficult to remove with other treatments. It works by causing blistering under the wart, lifting it off the skin.

3. Other Skin Lesions: Cantharidin may also be used to treat other skin lesions or conditions as determined by a healthcare provider.
