A Ret HC cream is a topical prescription treatment used to treat melasma (a skin disorder that brings dark, discoloured patches on the skin, primarily on the facial skin). The skin condition is common during pregnancy and menopause. A Ret HC is a triple combination drug that combines Hydroquinone (bleaching agent), tretinoin (retinoid acid), and hydrocortisone (steroid) to lighten these dark patches by reducing melanin production. It improves skin texture and gives smoother-looking skin. This cream also reduces itchiness, redness, and swelling, especially with sensitive skin.
- Hydrocortisone is an anti-inflammatory agent that calms inflammation and addresses redness.
- Tretinoin produces significant clinical improvement of melasma, mainly due to a reduction in epidermal pigment.
- Hydroquinone is the most frequently prescribed depigmenting agent, and it has remained the gold standard for treating melasma, particularly the epidermal type.
In addition to avoidance of aggravating factors such as oral pills and ultraviolet exposure, this triple combination therapy remains the mainstay of treatment.
A Ret HC cream is not recommended for children under twelve. Also, do not use this medicine for other skin conditions without consulting your dermatologist. Hydroquinone, tretinoin, and hydrocortisone should not be used by patients with a sulfite allergy, eczema, dermatitis (redness and swelling), or any skin infection.
The product may interact with other topical medications, especially benzoyl peroxide. However, if you are using any other medicines, whether it is a topical formulation or an oral drug, please consult your dermatologist. Do not use the product in larger amounts for a prolonged time. Please do not cover the treated area with clothing or wrap it with bandages unless instructed. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should confirm with their health care provider if they are suitable candidates for A ret HC cream.
Most A Ret HC cream side effects do not require medical help and resolve as your body adjusts to the medicine. Common side effects of A ret HC cream include dry skin, thinning skin, and application site reactions (itching, irritation, burning, and redness) if you develop any other symptoms because of this topical medication.
Use A-Ret HC cream exactly as prescribed by your dermatologist. Follow the directions carefully to achieve the best results. Let your dermatologist know if you are allergic to this medicine. The product is usually applied as a thin layer over the pigmented areas. Make sure you wash your hands after applying the medication. Treatment should be continued for up to three months up to one year. Avoid applying the cream on open wounds, cut, chapped, or sunburned skin. Avoid stepping out in the sun, as A Ret HC cream may make you more sensitive to sunlight. If you go out, wear protective clothing, and apply sunscreen to protect your skin from sunlight.
