About Eveglow Cream

Eveglow Cream is used to reduce the colour of skin and remove any dark spots like age spots, freckles, and other skin discolouration associated with skin trauma, pregnancy, birth control pills, eczema or hormone replacement therapy.

This drug acts as a skin-bleaching agent and works by inhibiting an enzyme reaction in the applied skin cells, thus it is primarily prescribed to treat gradual bleaching of hyperpigmented skin conditions. Side effects include skin redness, burning sensation of the skin, blistering, skin dryness, etc.

Before using this medicine, discuss with your doctor your medical history, especially if you have asthma, other skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Do not use the medicine if you have had allergic reactions to it.

It is recommended to apply this medicine to the affected areas of skin, generally twice every day or as directed by your doctor. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose or mouth. Avoid tanning booths, prolonged sun exposure and sunlamps. Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it.

Use exactly as directed; do not overuse. Therapeutic effect may take several weeks. Test response by applying to small area of unbroken skin and check in 24 hours; if irritation or blistering occurs do not use.

Avoid contact with eyes. Do not apply to open wounds or weeping areas. Before using, wash and dry area gently. Apply a thin film to affected area and rub in gently.

Avoid direct sunlight or use sunblock or protective clothing to prevent repigmentation. Report swelling, redness, rash, itching, signs of infection, worsening of condition, or lack of healing.
