Xinasone C Cream


Product introduction

Xinasone C Cream is a topical steroid used to treat inflammatory and allergic skin conditions like eczema and atopic dermatitis. It provides relief from swelling, redness, and itching in the affected area by preventing the release of substances that cause inflammation.

Avoid any contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Rinse it off with plenty of water in case of accidental contact. Avoid covering the treated area with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor.

Using the medicine may cause burning sensation, irritation, redness, and swelling at the site of application and dryness. These are temporary and usually go away with time. However, if they persist or worsen, let your doctor know. The medicine is not recommended for pregnant women. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult their doctors before using this medicine.

How to use Xinasone Cream
