Erythego Gel 15 gm

Erythego Gel is indicated in the treatment of facial redness of rosacea in adults 18 years of age or older. Rosacea is a skin condition that causes redness and small pus-filled bumps on the face.

Erythego Gel contains Brimonidine, which works by narrowing the blood vessels and reducing blood flow in the skin. Thus, it lowers the appearance of redness.

Sometimes, Erythego Gel may cause side effects like flushing, burning sensation, and skin rash. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, consult the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Erythego Gel is for external use only. Consult the doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Erythego Gel is not recommended for children. Keep the doctor informed about your health condition and medications to avoid unpleasant side effects/interactions.

Erythego Gel belongs to the class of medicines called vasoconstrictors, which are used to treat facial erythema (redness) of rosacea. It contains Brimonidine, an alpha-adrenergic agonist that works by narrowing the blood vessels in the skin, which in turn reduces blood flow and lowers the appearance of redness.

Rosacea: Rosacea is an inflammatory skin condition that causes red skin and a rash, usually on the nose and cheeks. Symptoms include facial redness, rash, small pus-filled bumps, visible blood vessels, and skin thickening. Rosacea is more common in middle-aged, older adults, women, and people with fair skin. However, due to skin colour, it may be underdiagnosed in people with darker skin.
