PRAMOX HC LOTION (HYDROCORTISONE ACETATE/PRAMOXINE HCL)
Pramox HC Lotion Description
Skin irritations from bites, stings, hives, poison ivy, and minor burns or scrapes can be painful and itchy. Unless you can stop the redness, inflammation, and pain that can occur, you may cause an infection from scratching the affected area. Pramox HC Lotion contains 2 active ingredients that will help treat your symptoms and lessen the risk of infection. The lotion formulation is thinner than the cream product which makes treating skin areas that are hairy much easier and more thorough.
Reduce the Inflammation and Pain of Many Skin Conditions
Hydrocortisone Acetate is one of the ingredients and works by absorbing into your skin cells and inhibiting the production of inflammatory chemicals that are signaled to the affected area as a way to contain the threat and begin healing. Pramoxine HCl (hydrochloride) helps by temporarily blocking sodium from entering your nerve endings located at the injured site. This action prevents an electrical signal from being sent along the nerve fibers to your brain to indicate the pain.
Conditions Treated by Pramox HC Lotion
Some individuals may find Pramox HC Lotion is effective when they experience a flare-up of eczema. The dry, flakey, inflamed skin areas become itchy and it is difficult not to give in and scratch away. If the skin barrier should become broken from intense scratching, bacteria that live on your skin may find their way in and cause an infection. Pramox HC Lotion is not designed to treat bacterial, fungal, or viral infections and should not be used until the infection has been treated.
Before You are Prescribed Pramox HC Lotion
Pramox HC Lotion is topical and very little should find its way to your bloodstream, however, you should tell your doctor if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breast feeding to know if there are any risks to your unborn or nursing baby. Discuss other medical conditions or allergies you have and list any OTC or Rx medications you currently use or take, including alternative and complementary medicine. This will determine if your doctor feels Pramox HC Lotion is safe for you to use.
