Composition

Each gram of Itchsol Cream contains:

• Pramoxine Hydrochloride 1% – a local anesthetic that numbs the affected area and reduces itching

• Calamine 3% – a mild astringent and protective agent that soothes irritated skin and reduces redness

Indications

The cream works quickly to reduce itching while promoting skin comfort and preventing further scratching damage.

Pharmacology

• Pramoxine Hydrochloride: Acts as a local anesthetic by blocking the transmission of nerve signals responsible for itching and pain. It provides rapid symptomatic relief without significant systemic absorption.

• Calamine: Has mild astringent properties that help dry oozing or weeping skin, reduce inflammation, and provide a soothing protective layer over irritated areas. Together, these ingredients provide effective relief from itching and mild pain associated with skin irritation.
