Treatment of Skin allergies

Medicinal Benefits

Urosone Cream is a steroid that is used to treat swelling, itching, redness, heat, and pain caused by certain skin problems such as psoriasis (scales and itchy, dry patches), dermatitis (itchy, swelling of the skin) and eczema (itchy, cracked, swollen or rough skin). Urosone Cream acts inside the skin cells and inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching and swelling. When the skin reacts to any type of allergens, such chemicals are released normally.

Directions for Use

Wash your hands before and after applying Urosone Cream. Take a small amount of Urosone Cream and apply as a thin layer on the affected area of the skin 1 or 2 times every day. Urosone Cream is only for external use. If you are using Urosone Cream on your face, avoid contact with your eyes as it may cause irritation. In case Urosone Cream comes into contact with eyes accidentally, rinse it with water thoroughly.
