Ivrea Cream 1.0% w/w (Ivermectin cream)

Ivrea Cream 1.0% w/w is primarily used to treat inflammatory lesions of rosacea.

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that commonly affects the central areas of the face. It may cause redness along with inflammatory bumps, papules and pustules.

Ivrea Cream contains ivermectin 1% w/w, a topical medicine used particularly for the inflammatory component of rosacea. Use it only for the condition and duration recommended by your doctor or dermatologist.

The main benefit of Ivrea Cream (ivermectin 1%) is its ability to help reduce inflammatory rosacea lesions such as papules and pustules.

With appropriate and regular use prescribed by a healthcare professional, ivermectin cream may help:

• Reduce inflammatory facial bumps and pustules associated with rosacea
• Control the inflammatory component of rosacea
• Improve the overall appearance of affected facial skin
• Provide a topical treatment option for appropriate rosacea patients

Individual response varies, and rosacea may require additional skincare, trigger management or other treatments depending on its type and severity.

Use Ivrea Cream exactly as directed by your doctor.

For ivermectin 1% cream, commonly labelled instructions involve applying a thin layer to affected areas of the face once daily.

Before applying:

Clean and gently dry the affected skin. Apply the prescribed amount in a thin layer to affected areas such as the forehead, cheeks, nose or chin. Avoid contact with the eyes, eyelids, lips and inside of the mouth or nose.

Wash your hands after applying the medicine unless your hands are the treatment area.

Do not apply more frequently or in larger amounts than recommended by your healthcare professional.

The exact mechanism by which topical ivermectin treats rosacea is not fully understood.

Ivermectin has antiparasitic activity, including activity involving Demodex mites, which are found naturally on human skin but may be present in higher numbers or contribute to inflammation in some people with rosacea.

Ivermectin also has anti-inflammatory properties that may contribute to its effect on inflammatory rosacea lesions.

Therefore, Ivrea Cream may help manage rosacea through a combination of anti-inflammatory and antiparasitic activity, although its exact mechanism in rosacea remains uncertain.

Ivrea Cream may cause local skin reactions in some users.

Possible side effects of topical ivermectin can include:

• Burning sensation at the application site
• Skin irritation
• Itching
• Redness
• Dryness or increased skin sensitivity
• Allergic or contact dermatitis in some individuals

Avoid getting the cream into your eyes, lips or mouth. If severe irritation, swelling, rash, allergic symptoms or persistent discomfort develops, stop using the product and contact a healthcare professional.

Pregnant or breastfeeding patients should consult their doctor before using ivermectin cream.
