HYSONE
CREAM
1% (W/W)
DESCRIPTION
HYSONE CREAM 1% (w/w)
169mm (w) x 142mm (h)
INDICATION
A white coloured, homogeneous cream containing Hydrocortisone Acetate
1%.
_Preservatives: Methylparaben 0.32% w/w, Propylparaben 0.048% w/w._
For relief of symptoms of acute and chronic skin dermatoses, e.g.
Eczema, contact
dermatitis and psoriasis.
Corticosteroids diffuse through cell membranes and complexes with
specific
cytoplasmic cell receptors. These complexes then enters the cell
nucleus, binds to
DNA, and stimulate transcription of mRNA to produce various inhibitory
enzymes
responsible
for
the
anti-inflammatory
effects
of
the
corticosteroids.
These
inflammatory effects includes inhibition of early process such as
oedema, fibrin
deposition,
capillary
dilatation,
movement
of
phagocytes
into
the
area
and
phagocytic
activities.
Later
process
such
as
capillary
production,
collagen
deposition, and keloid formation are also inhibited by
corticosteroids. The overall
action of corticosteroids is catabolic.
Hysone Cream 1% (w/w) is absorbed systemically through the stratum
corneum.
The
penetration
process
is
enhanced
by
increasing
skin
hydration
and/or
temperature.
Occlusion
also
enhances
penetration.
Increased
percutaneous
absorption also occurs when the mucosa or skin is abraded or
inflammed; when
body temperature is elevated; with prolonged use and/or with extensive
use.
Repeated application results in a cumulative depot effect in the skin,
which may
lead to prolonged duration of action, increased side effects, and
increased systemic
absorption.
A small quantity should be applied to the affected area 2 or 3 times
daily until
improvement occurs. It may then be possible to maintain improvement by
applying
once a day, or even less often. Occlusion of the area under treatment
with plastic
film may be used to enhance the effect in more resistant cases.
Route of Administration: For External use only
Prolonged and intensive treatment, particularly with occlusive
dressing, may cause
local atrophic changes in the skin, such as striae
