Introduction

Vaniza HC Gel is for external use only. You should always use it exactly as your doctor has told you. The affected area should be clean and dry before application. You must wash your hands thoroughly before and after applying this medicine. This medicine should be used regularly to get the most benefit from it. Do not use more than you need as it will not clear your condition faster and some side effects may be increased. If your condition goes on for longer than 4 weeks or gets worse at any time, let your doctor know. You can help this medicine work better by keeping the affected areas clean, making sure they are dry, and washing your hands before and after treating the infection.

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 gel. Wash your hands after applying unless hands are the affected area.

Vaniza HC Gel is a combination of two medicines: Hydrocortisone and Dimethicone. Hydrocortisone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Dimethicone softens and moisturizes the skin and decreases itching and flaking.

Wash your skin with a mild cleanser and pat it dry before applying. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor. Apply it as a thin layer onto a clean, dry, unbroken infected area of skin. Use moisturizer regularly to overcome skin dryness during the course of treatment. Don't use this medicine more often or for longer than advised by your doctor.
