This cream is an ideal solution for adults and children over 30 months, but it is essential to follow the instructions for use for effective and safe treatment.

Properties and Indications

Sedermyl 0.75% cream is recommended for itching, particularly insect bites. However, it is crucial to respect the contraindications, namely a history of allergy to antihistamines, infected or irritated skin lesions, as well as oozing skin lesions.

Ingredients and Directions for Use

The active substance in this cream is isothipendyl hydrochloride. Other ingredients include edetate sodium, cetostearyl alcohol emulsifier, oleic acid decyl ester, cetyl alcohol, propylene glycol, and purified water. It is recommended to apply the cream 2 to 3 times a day, without exceeding 5 days of treatment. The route of administration is cutaneous, and it is important not to apply the cream to a large surface area, under an occlusive dressing, to damaged skin, or to premature babies or infants.

Precautions for Use and Adverse Effects

It is essential to exercise caution when using Sédermyl 0.75% cream, particularly in pregnant or breastfeeding women, and when taking other medications. Local skin reactions, such as eczema, may occur due to the presence of cetostearyl alcohol and cetyl alcohol. Additionally, skin irritations may be caused by propylene glycol. Adverse reactions, although rare, may include allergy to isothipendyl or components of the cream, as well as cases of photosensitization.

Presented in the form of a 35g tube, Cooper’s Sédermyl 0.75% cream is a practical solution to relieve itching. Be sure to consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns.
