Eflornithine (13.9% w/w)
Active composition
Eflornithine inhibits ornithine decarboxylase, an enzyme involved in hair follicle activity, thereby slowing hair growth.
Medical applications
Hinder Cream contains Eflornithine 13.9% w/w as its active ingredient and is indicated for the reduction of unwanted facial hair in women. Eflornithine is a selective, irreversible inhibitor of the enzyme ornithine decarboxylase, which plays a critical role in hair follicle cell proliferation. By inhibiting this enzyme, Hinder Cream slows down hair growth, leading to a noticeable reduction in the rate and thickness of unwanted hair. The cream is intended for topical application to affected facial areas, such as the upper lip and chin, and should be applied twice daily for optimal results. Clinical studies have demonstrated that consistent use over 4 to 8 weeks results in significant hair growth retardation, with continued use necessary to maintain effects. Hinder Cream is generally well tolerated; however, mild skin irritation, redness, or burning sensation at the application site may occur and typically resolves with continued use or discontinuation. It is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to Eflornithine or any cream excipients. Use during pregnancy and lactation should be considered only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk. Patients are advised to avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes and to follow the prescribed regimen for safe and effective treatment.
How to use Hinder Cream This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.
