Oxyface Cream

Oxyface cream is indicated for the topical treatment of persistent facial erythema associated with rosacea in adults.

Oxymetazoline is an alpha1A adrenoceptor agonist. Oxymetazoline acts as a vasoconstrictor.

For topical use only, it is not for oral, ophthalmic or intravaginal use. Apply a little amount of the cream, once daily in a thin layer to cover the entire face (forehead, nose, each cheek and chin) avoiding eyes and lips. Wash hands immediately after applying the cream.

Most common side effects are application site dermatitis, worsening inflammatory lesions of rosacea, application site pruritis, application site erythema and application site pain.

The safety of oxymetazoline during pregnancy and lactation has not been established, but use during this period is not considered to constitute a hazard.

Alpha-adrenergic agonists may impact blood pressure.
