Overview Pasitrex Ointment

DermaMend Ointment is a topical treatment for mild to moderate psoriasis. It functions by slowing skin cell regeneration, thereby diminishing the characteristic redness and scaling. DermaMend Ointment is for external application only, strictly following your physician's instructions. Apply to clean, dry skin, washing your hands meticulously before and after use. Consistent application is key for optimal results. Avoid overuse; it won't accelerate healing and may increase side effects. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist beyond four weeks or worsen. Maintaining cleanliness of affected areas enhances efficacy. Common, typically temporary side effects include dryness, irritation, itching, burning, stinging, redness, and rash at the application site. Persistent side effects warrant medical attention. Avoid eye contact; rinse with water and seek immediate medical help if contact occurs. Inform your doctor of pregnancy, pregnancy plans, breastfeeding, kidney, or liver conditions before use, to ensure appropriate dosage. Facial application is contraindicated due to potential irritation. Minimize sun or UV light exposure during treatment.

FAQs on Pasitrex Ointment

Pasitrex Ointment is not a steroid, but a synthetic vitamin D3 derivative. Vitamin D regulates skin cell growth. Psoriasis involves excessive, non-shedding skin cell growth, leading to raised, red, scaly patches. Pasitrex Ointment reduces this excess cell production.
Pasitrex Ointment may show some improvement within two weeks, though individual responses vary. Significant improvement might be seen after eight weeks, but complete symptom resolution is uncommon. Consult your doctor if you have concerns.
Pasitrex Ointment shouldn't be applied to the face due to potential skin irritation and the risk of eye contact. Use caution in skin folds like armpits or under the breasts, as these areas are more susceptible to irritation.
Use Pasitrex Ointment exactly as your doctor instructs. Wash your hands before and after application. Apply a thick layer directly to affected psoriasis patches (red, scaly areas) or onto your fingertip first. Gently rub it in completely. Always wash your hands afterward.
Pasitrex Ointment is contraindicated in patients with allergies to its components, pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with severe hepatic or renal impairment, and those with abnormal calcium levels. It should not be used in children under 6 years of age.
