Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Azelaic Acid 15%/Oxymetazoline HCl 1%/Ketotifen 0.05% Topical Gel is a compounded formulation designed for the treatment of skin conditions such as rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis, and allergic contact dermatitis. This unique combination of active ingredients works synergistically to alleviate the symptoms associated with these conditions.

Azelaic Acid, constituting 15% of the formulation, is a potent anti-inflammatory agent. It works by reducing redness and inflammation commonly associated with rosacea. This ingredient is crucial in managing the symptoms of rosacea, helping to restore the skin's normal appearance.

Oxymetazoline HCl, present at a concentration of 1%, is a vasoconstrictor. It aids in reducing redness and swelling, symptoms often seen in both rosacea and seborrheic dermatitis. By constricting the blood vessels, Oxymetazoline HCl helps to decrease the redness and swelling, providing relief to the patient.

Ketotifen, at a concentration of 0.05%, is an antihistamine. It is particularly effective in managing allergic contact dermatitis as it helps to reduce itching and inflammation, common symptoms of this condition. By blocking the action of histamine, Ketotifen helps to alleviate the discomfort associated with allergic reactions on the skin.

This topical gel is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. It is important to apply a thin layer of the gel to the affected area twice daily, or as directed by a healthcare provider. Please note that it may take up to 8 weeks to see the full effects of this formulation.

It is crucial to avoid using this formulation on broken or irritated skin. Also, avoid contact with the eyes, nose, and mouth. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water. If you have any questions or concerns about using Azelaic Acid 15%/Oxymetazoline HCl 1%/Ketotifen 0.05% Topical Gel, please consult with your healthcare provider.

This topical gel is particularly effective in treating conditions such as rosacea, acne, and eczema. However, its benefits extend to the management of other skin conditions including hives and contact dermatitis. The gel formulation allows for targeted treatment, ensuring that the active ingredients are delivered precisely where they are needed most.

As with any new skincare regimen, it is recommended to monitor your skin's response to the treatment. If you notice any adverse reactions or if your symptoms persist, discontinue use and consult with a healthcare professional. Remember, skincare is not one-size-fits-all, and what works best for one person may not work for another.
