Our Products
We offer a complete product range of Imiquimod Cream and Tacrolimus Ointment
Imiquimod cream 12.5% is a prescription-only medication used to treat a variety of skin conditions. It is classified as an immune response modifier, and it works by stimulating the body's immune system to fight against abnormal skin growths or viral infections.
Uses
Imiquimod 5% cream is indicated for the topical treatment of:
External genital and perianal warts (condylomata acuminata) in adults and adolescents aged 12 and older. Imiquimod does not cure the virus that causes the warts, and new warts may appear during treatment.
Superficial basal cell carcinoma (sBCC), a common form of skin cancer.
Actinic keratosis (AK), a precancerous skin condition caused by sun damage, on the face and scalp.
How to Use
Imiquimod cream is for external use on the skin only. It is typically applied at bedtime and left on for a specific duration (usually 6 to 10 hours), after which it is washed off with mild soap and water. The frequency and duration of treatment vary depending on the condition being treated, so it is crucial to follow a doctor's specific instructions.
For genital warts: The cream is often applied three times per week for up to 16 weeks.
For superficial basal cell carcinoma: The cream is usually applied five times per week for 6 weeks.
For actinic keratosis: The cream is typically applied twice a week for 16 weeks.
It's important to wash your hands before and after applying the cream. Do not cover the treated area with an occlusive bandage unless directed by a doctor.
Side Effects
Imiquimod is known to cause local skin reactions, which can be a sign that the treatment is working. Common side effects include:
Redness, itching, burning, and pain at the application site.
Flaking, scaling, dryness, or thickening of the skin.
Blisters, scabs, or bumps.
Skin irritation and swelling.
More serious side effects can include flu-like symptoms such as fever, chills, nausea, and muscle aches. Changes in skin color at the treated site (either lighter or darker) may also occur and could be permanent. If you experience severe side effects or if they do not go away, contact your doctor immediately.
Important Precautions
Imiquimod cream can weaken condoms and vaginal diaphragms, so it's essential to avoid sexual contact while the cream is on the skin to prevent irritation to your partner and to ensure the effectiveness of these birth control methods.
Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight and tanning beds while using imiquimod, as it can increase sun sensitivity.
The cream is not recommended for children under 12 years of age.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before using this medication.

Tacroheal Ointment is a brand name for a topical medication containing the active ingredient tacrolimus. It is a type of immunosuppressant, specifically a calcineurin inhibitor, used to treat certain inflammatory skin conditions.
Here is a detailed description of Tacroheal Ointment:
1. Active Ingredient and Mechanism of Action
Active Ingredient: Tacrolimus.
Mechanism: Tacrolimus works by inhibiting an enzyme called calcineurin. This inhibition prevents the activation of certain immune cells (T-cells) that are responsible for causing inflammation and allergic reactions in the skin. By suppressing this immune response, the ointment helps to reduce the symptoms of skin conditions like itching, redness, and inflammation.
2. Indications (What it's used for) Tacroheal Ointment is primarily prescribed for:
Moderate to Severe Atopic Dermatitis (Eczema): It is used for short-term and intermittent long-term management of eczema in adults and children who have not responded well to or cannot tolerate other conventional therapies, such as topical corticosteroids.
3. Dosage and Administration
Formulation: It is an ointment for topical use only.
Application: A thin layer of the ointment should be applied to the affected areas of clean, dry skin. It should be rubbed in gently and thoroughly.
Frequency: The typical dosage is twice a day, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Important Instructions:
It should not be applied to open wounds or broken skin.
Do not cover the treated area with an occlusive dressing, such as a bandage or wrap, unless specifically instructed by a doctor, as this can increase systemic absorption and the risk of side effects.
Wash hands before and after application, unless the hands are the treated area.
The medication should be used for a limited duration and discontinued when the symptoms of eczema have cleared up. If there is no improvement after a certain period (e.g., six weeks), a doctor should be consulted.
4. Common Side Effects The most frequent side effects are local and occur at the application site, especially during the first few days of treatment. These can include:
Burning or stinging sensation
Itching
Redness (erythema)
Increased skin sensitivity to hot and cold temperatures.
These side effects often decrease as the skin condition improves. Other possible, but less common, side effects include headache and inflammation of hair follicles.
5. Warnings and Precautions
Long-Term Use: The long-term safety of tacrolimus ointment is not fully established. There have been rare cases of skin cancer and lymphoma in patients treated with this medication, though a direct causal link has not been proven. For this reason, continuous, long-term use is generally discouraged.
Immune System: Because it is an immunosuppressant, it should be used with caution in patients with a weakened immune system or skin conditions that could increase systemic absorption, such as Netherton's syndrome.
Sun Exposure: Tacroheal Ointment can increase sensitivity to sunlight. Patients should avoid or limit sun exposure and use protective clothing and sunscreen while using this medication.
Alcohol Consumption: Drinking alcohol while using the ointment may cause facial flushing or redness and a feeling of warmth.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: It is recommended to consult a doctor before using the ointment if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as the effects on the fetus or infant are not fully known.
Children: It is not recommended for use in children under 2 years of age. For children between 2 and 15 years old, the 0.03% strength is typically used.
