How it works
Hydrocortisone Topical is a steroid. It blocks the production of some chemical messengers that cause inflammation, redness, swlling & other allergies in the body thereby improving the condition. Zinc Oxide provides essential nutrients. Calcium Dobesilate Topical works on the walls of the small vessel and decreases their leakage and fragility. It also improves blood flow by decreasing viscosity/thickness of blood. Lidocaine Topical is a local anesthetic. It makes the condition better by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain to decrease the sensation of pain. Phenylephrine is a decongestant that improves the condition by shrinking the blood vessels to provide quick and temporary relief from inflammation (swelling and redness) and discomfort.
