Hydroquinone (3% w/w)
Active composition
Hydroquinone inhibits the enzyme tyrosinase, reducing melanin synthesis and lightening hyperpigmented skin.
Medical applications
Hyde Cream contains Hydroquinone 3% w/w, a topical agent used primarily for the treatment of hyperpigmentation disorders such as melasma, freckles, age spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Hydroquinone acts by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase, which plays a crucial role in the synthesis of melanin, thereby reducing excessive pigmentation and promoting a more even skin tone. This cream is indicated for adults with localized areas of hyperpigmentation and should be applied once or twice daily to the affected areas, avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes. It is essential to use sun protection during treatment, as hydroquinone can increase photosensitivity and the risk of sunburn. Patients should be advised to discontinue use if irritation, redness, or excessive dryness occurs. Prolonged use beyond recommended durations is not advised due to potential adverse effects such as ochronosis, a paradoxical skin darkening. Hyde Cream is contraindicated in individuals with hypersensitivity to hydroquinone or any of its excipients, and it is not recommended for use during pregnancy or lactation. For optimal results, treatment duration should be limited to a few months under medical supervision, with periodic evaluation to monitor skin response and safety.
