Overview MMS Cream
Topical steroid cream, designated here as "DermaMend," effectively manages various skin ailments including eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, and rashes. It alleviates symptoms such as inflammation, itching, and redness. Always adhere strictly to your physician's instructions regarding DermaMend application. Avoid prolonged use beyond the prescribed period. Apply a thin layer to the affected skin area. Do not cover the treated area with dressings unless specifically advised by your doctor. Consistent use is recommended, but avoid excessive application or extended treatment. Consult your doctor if no improvement is observed after a fortnight. While DermaMend may cause mild side effects such as folliculitis, burning, stinging, or itching upon application, these are not universally experienced. Report any concerning side effects to your doctor immediately. Prior to using DermaMend, disclose any pre-existing conditions, such as skin thinning, skin infections, open wounds, diabetes, or immune deficiencies, to your physician. Furthermore, inform your doctor about all other medications you are currently using, especially other corticosteroids.
