About Lumacip Plus Cream
Lumacip Plus Cream is primarily used to treat melasma (dark brown patch on skin). Melasma, also known as chloasma or mask of pregnancy, is a common skin condition that causes brown patches on the face. It is more common in women than in men. The discoloured (grey-brown) patches occur mostly on the forehead, chin, nose and cheeks.
Lumacip Plus Cream contains three medicines, namely: Fluocinolone acetonide (steroid), Hydroquinone (skin lightening or bleaching agent), and Tretinoin (a form of Vitamin A or retinoids). Fluocinolone acetonide is a steroid that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Hydroquinone belongs to the class of skin-lightening agents that work by decreasing the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Tretinoin belongs to the class of retinoids (man-made vitamin A) that works by increasing the renewal of skin cells, which helps in the natural exfoliation of the skin’s outer layers.
Lumacip Plus Cream is only for external use. Avoid contact of Lumacip Plus Cream with nose, mouth, eyes, ears, or vagina. Do not apply on a cut, open wound, or burnt skin area. In case Lumacip Plus Cream comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Some people may experience application site reactions (burning, irritation, itching, and redness). Most of these side effects of Lumacip Plus Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Lumacip Plus Cream or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant, nursing mother or planning for pregnancy, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Lumacip Plus Cream. Lumacip Plus Cream is not recommended for children below 12 years of age. Do not apply Lumacip Plus Cream on ulcerated skin or wounds. Avoid sun exposure while using Lumacip Plus Cream as it may make the skin more sensitive to sunlight and cause sunburn. Wear protective clothing and use sunscreen while going out to protect your skin from sunburn. Do not cover or wrap the treated area with a bandage unless advised by your doctor. Avoid smoking or going near naked flames as the fabric (bedding, clothing, dressings) that is in contact with Lumacip Plus Cream catches fire and burns easily. If you have a sulfite allergy, asthma, rosacea (redness and often red, small, pus-filled bumps on the face), acne, skin thinning, perioral dermatitis (redness and swelling of the skin around the mouth), genital itching, chickenpox, diabetes, cold sores, ulcerated skin, warts, shingles (a viral infection causing painful rash), eczema (itchy, swelling of the skin) or any other skin condition, diabetes, Cushing syndrome, glucosuria, inform your doctor before taking Lumacip Plus Cream.
