About Glowtan Cream
Glowtan Cream is used to treat melasma. Melasma is a common skin condition that causes dark brown patches on the face, often triggered by sun exposure or hormonal changes.
Glowtan Cream contains Hydroquinone, Mometasone, and Tretinoin, which work together to reduce the amount of melanin (a natural pigment responsible for skin darkening), block the release of certain chemicals that cause inflammation, increase the renewal of skin cells, and exfoliate the outer layers of the skin.
Glowtan Cream is only for external use. Apply it exactly as prescribed by your doctor or as instructed on the label. In some cases, Glowtan Cream may cause common side effects, including skin pain, acne (pimples), redness, irritation, itching, or a burning or stinging sensation. Please consult your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen.
Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Glowtan Cream or have other skin conditions or allergies. Consult your doctor before using Glowtan Cream if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Glowtan Cream is not recommended for children below 12 years of age. Do not apply Glowtan Cream to ulcerated skin or wounds. Avoid sun exposure while using Glowtan Cream, as it may increase skin sensitivity to sunlight and cause sunburn.

Glowtan Cream is used to treat melasma (dark brown patches on skin).
Glowtan Cream contains Hydroquinone, Mometasone and Tretinoin. Hydroquinone is a skin-lightening agent that works by decreasing the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Mometasone is a corticosteroid that acts inside skin cells and inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching and swelling. Tretinoin belongs to the class of retinoids (synthetic vitamin A) and works by increasing the renewal of skin cells, which helps with the natural exfoliation of the skin's outer layers.
Yes, Glowtan Cream may increase the skin sensitivity to sunlight in the treated areas. Therefore, avoid or limit exposure to sunlight and sunlamps. You are advised to use sunscreen and wear protective clothing when outdoors to prevent sunburn.
Yes, Glowtan Cream may cause skin irritation, burning sensation or itching at the site of application in rare cases. However, if the irritation persists or worsens, discontinue use of Glowtan Cream and consult a physician.
You are advised to use a moisturiser in the morning every day to restore the skin's barrier function, which protects it from damage. Glowtan Cream may make the skin more sensitive to extreme weather conditions such as cold and wind. Therefore, wear protective clothing and use moisturiser as required. However, please consult a doctor before using moisturising lotions or any other products with Glowtan Cream.
No, Glowtan Cream is not used to treat diaper rash. Using Glowtan Cream under the child’s nappy enables it to pass through the skin easily and cause adverse effects. However, please consult a doctor before using Glowtan Cream in children.
It is not recommended to use Glowtan Cream with benzoyl peroxide, hydrogen peroxide, or other peroxide products, as it may cause skin staining, which is usually removable with soap and water. However, please consult a doctor before using other medicines with Glowtan Cream.
Use Glowtan Cream for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. However, avoid using Glowtan Cream for more than 6 to 8 weeks without a doctor’s advice.
Hormonal contraceptives like oral/vaginal birth control pills, injections, implants, skin patches, and vaginal rings can cause melasma to get worse. So, it is advisable to ask your doctor about using non-hormonal birth control (condom, diaphragm with spermicide) instead.
Use Glowtan Cream as directed by the physician. Clean and dry the affected area. Apply Glowtan Cream onto the affected areas of the skin.
Avoid contact of Glowtan Cream with nose, mouth, eyes, ears or vagina. In case Glowtan Cream comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Do not use it on ulcerated skin or wounds.
