Overview Zestoquine Forte Cream

Melasma treatment utilizes Forte Cream, a topical skin-lightening agent. This medication reduces hyperpigmentation by decreasing melanin production, leading to reversible skin depigmentation. Apply only externally, following your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration. Always wash hands before and after application; consistent use maximizes effectiveness. Avoid overuse, as this can intensify potential side effects. While uncommon, possible side effects include dryness, itching, burning, peeling, and redness. Report any persistent or bothersome side effects to your physician. Consult the accompanying instructions. Avoid eye contact; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs. A patch test on unbroken skin near the affected area for several days is recommended to assess for allergic reactions; discontinue use if itching, significant inflammation, or swelling appears. Pregnant individuals should seek medical advice prior to use. If no improvement is observed after eight weeks, cease treatment.
