Medicine Description

INDICATIONS

Urea 10% cream is indicated for-

Ichthyosis and dry skin conditions
Management of eczemas
Management of psoriasis

PHARMACOLOGY

Topical urea is bacteriostatic, bactericidal, fungistatic, proteolytic, hygroscopic and has mild local anesthetic properties. These actions are dose dependent. Most of its therapeutic applications depend on its hygroscopic properties. The hygroscopic property is due to its ability to cause configurational change in proteins in the stratum corneum. A 10% urea cream has been shown to increase the water holding capacity of ichthyotic scale by 100% after 3 weeks of treatment. There is no information available about percutaneous absorption of urea. Therapeutic effects depend on local concentrations, not on systemic absorption of the drug. If absorbed, urea would be excreted unchanged in the urine.

DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION

Urea 10% cream is applied topically. Wash affected areas well, rinse off all traces of soap, dry and apply sparingly twice daily. Occlusive dressings may be used, but are usually unnecessary because of the self-occlusive nature of the cream.Use in children: Urea 10% cream can be used in all age groups.

INTERACTION

No hazardous drug interaction has been reported.
