Melavel Solution belongs to the class of drugs called psoralens (light-sensitive drugs) used along with controlled ultraviolet light in a treatment called psoralen plus ultraviolet light A (PUVA) to treat skin conditions such as vitiligo and psoriasis. Psoriasis is a skin disorder in which skin cells multiply and form bumpy (uneven) red patches covered with white scales. Vitiligo is a skin condition that causes loss of skin colour in blotches when melanocytes (cells that produce the colour) do not produce skin pigment, melanin (that gives the skin colour). 

Melavel Solution contains methoxsalen, which is used alongside ultraviolet-A radiation. It works by reducing the number of cells the skin makes.

Melavel Solution is for external use only. Some people may experience itching or skin irritation. Most of these side effects of Melavel Solution 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 Methoxsalen or any other medicines, please inform your doctor. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Melavel Solution. After UVA exposure, you are recommended to wash the treated area of the skin with soap and water. Then use sunscreen or wear protective clothing to protect the treated area. If you have squamous cell cancer (a form of skin cancer) or melanoma (a serious type of skin cancer), please inform your doctor beforehand.
