Melgain Lotion 5 ml belongs to the 'depigmenting agents' class. It is primarily used in vitiligo treatment. Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition that causes pale white patches to appear on the skin. It is caused by a lack of melanin, the pigment in the skin. Vitiligo can affect any skin area, but it is most common on the face, neck, hands, and skin creases.

Melgain Lotion 5 ml contains 'Decapeptide' as an active ingredient. Topical application of Decapeptide solution induces migratory behaviour and proliferation of melanin-producing cells (melanocytes) in white depigmented patches of skin and roots of the hair. Thereby, it helps to treat vitiligo patches.

Melgain Lotion 5 ml is solely intended for external use. In some cases, you may experience skin irritation, dry skin, burning sensation. Most of the Melgain Lotion 5 ml's side effects do not necessitate medical treatment and gradually fade over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please contact your doctor.

You should not take Melgain Lotion 5 ml if you are hypersensitive to any components/ingredients in the formulation; please check with your healthcare provider if you are unsure about it. Keep your physician up to date on your health condition and the medications you are using to rule out any possible interactions. Consult your doctor before taking Melgain Lotion 5 ml if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
