Overview Melapik -HQ Cream

Hydroquinone cream, such as Melapik-HQ, treats melasma by lightening hyperpigmented skin areas. This topical medication reduces melanin production, leading to reversible skin depigmentation. Apply only as directed by your physician. Always wash hands before and after application, using the prescribed dosage and frequency for optimal results. Avoid overuse; excessive application may increase side effects. While uncommon, potential side effects include dryness, itching, burning, peeling, and redness. Report any persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor immediately. Read the accompanying instructions carefully. Avoid eye contact; rinse thoroughly with water if accidental contact occurs. A patch test on unbroken skin near the affected area for several days is recommended to check for allergic reactions; discontinue use if significant itching, inflammation, or swelling develops. Pregnant individuals should seek medical advice before use. If no improvement is noted after eight weeks, cease treatment.
