Benoquin Cream is a depigmenting agent. It works by increasing the elimination of melanin (skin darkening pigment) from skin cells. This helps lighten the skin in vitiligo.

Benoquin Cream helps lighten the skin in people with vitiligo. It may take up to 4 months to complete treatment. Keep using the medication as prescribed. Apply it in a thin layer to the pigmented areas of skin and rub in gently. It can make your skin more sensitive to sun. Use sunscreen and protective clothing when outdoors.
