Product introduction
Hydoxip 500 Capsule is a topical medication used in the treatment of excessive skin dryness. It works by dissolving the substance found between cells which results in softening of dry and rough skin.
Hydoxip 500 Capsule may be used alone or with other skin treatments. You should use it as your doctor's advice. The leaflet that comes with the product will also give instructions which you should read to get the most out of this medicine. You should avoid contact with your mouth, eyes and nose. It may take several weeks for your symptoms to improve and several months to get maximum benefit but after you have used it for a month you should see your doctor again to check if your condition is improving.
Hydoxip 500 Capsule has some common side effects including skin irritation, redness, dry skin, skin peeling and burning sensation at the site of application. They are not usually serious but if they bother you or do not go away, tell your doctor. You may need to apply smaller amounts or use it less often. This medicine can make you more sensitive to sunlight. While using it you should try to avoid exposure to too much sunlight. If this is unavoidable, apply the gel in the evening.
