CETRABEN CREAM is used to treat eczema and related dry skin conditions. Eczema is a disease in which skin patches become inflamed and rough with sores, which may lead to itching and bleeding. The skin loses moisture, and it may peel, crack, irritate, and the skin becomes dry.
CETRABEN CREAM contains liquid paraffin and white soft paraffin. Liquid paraffin works by avoiding water loss from the outer coating of the skin. This reduces dryness and leaves the skin hydrated and soft. White soft paraffin gives a layer of oil on the surface of the skin, avoids water evaporation from the surface of the skin, and helps to moisten the skin.
Use CETRABEN CREAM as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to use CETRABEN CREAM for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical conditions. You may experience redness, irritation, and sensitisation. Most of these side effects of CETRABEN CREAM do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
