Meladinine Solution

₦74,250 ₦89,100

Description:

Meladinine Solution contains Methoxsalen (8-Methoxypsoralen), a powerful photo-sensitizing agent derived from the seeds of Ammi majus. It is used in combination with controlled exposure to ultraviolet A (UVA) light—a process known as PUVA therapy. The solution works by increasing the skin's sensitivity to light, which stimulates the production of melanin (skin pigment) and helps in the repigmentation of white patches.

MELADININE SOLUTION – POTENT TOPICAL PSORALEN FOR RE-PIGMENTATION THERAPY

Description: Meladinine Solution contains Methoxsalen (8-Methoxypsoralen), a powerful photo-sensitizing agent derived from the seeds of Ammi majus. It is used in combination with controlled exposure to ultraviolet A (UVA) light—a process known as PUVA therapy. The solution works by increasing the skin's sensitivity to light, which stimulates the production of melanin (skin pigment) and helps in the repigmentation of white patches.

In Nigeria, Meladinine is a specialized dermatological treatment primarily prescribed for the management of vitiligo and severe cases of psoriasis. It is available through clinical pharmacies like Sanlive Pharmacy to ensure patients receive authentic medication and professional guidance on its highly specific application process.

Important: This is a high-potency prescription medicine. It must only be used under the strict supervision of a dermatologist. Incorrect use or overexposure to sunlight/UVA after application can cause severe skin burns, blistering, and long-term skin damage.

Key Uses & Benefits

Meladinine Solution is primarily used to treat:

  • Vitiligo (loss of skin pigment) by stimulating melanocytes to produce color

  • Severe, recalcitrant Psoriasis that has not responded to other treatments

  • Mycosis fungoides (a type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma)

  • Other skin disorders requiring photo-chemotherapy as determined by a specialist

Who Should Use Meladinine Solution?

This product is suitable for:

  • Adults diagnosed with widespread or localized vitiligo

  • Patients undergoing clinical PUVA (Psoralen + UVA) therapy sessions

  • Individuals with severe skin conditions requiring advanced repigmentation therapy

Not recommended for: Children under 12 years of age. Individuals with a history of skin cancer (melanoma or squamous cell carcinoma), lupus erythematosus, or porphyria. Do not use if you are highly sensitive to sunlight or have aphakia (absence of the lens of the eye).

Suggested Usage:

  • Apply the solution only to the specific white patches as directed by your dermatologist

  • Application is usually done 1 to 2 hours before a scheduled UVA light exposure session

  • Use a cotton swab or applicator to ensure the solution does not touch the surrounding healthy skin

  • After the prescribed light exposure, the treated area must be washed thoroughly with soap and water

  • Protect the treated area from any additional sunlight for at least 12 to 24 hours by wearing protective clothing or high-SPF sunscreen

  • Wear UVA-absorbing wraparound sunglasses for 24 hours after treatment to protect your eyes from cataract formation

Common Side Effects

Localized reactions are expected as part of the treatment's mechanism, but monitor for:

  • Redness (erythema) and itching at the application site

  • Mild stinging or burning sensation

  • Darkening of the skin surrounding the treated area (hyperpigmentation)

  • Serious: Severe skin blistering, swelling, or painful burns if overexposed to light

  • Nausea or dizziness (more common with oral forms, but possible with extensive topical use)

Discontinue use and contact your dermatologist immediately if you experience intense pain, widespread blistering, or sudden vision changes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use Meladinine and then sit in the sun?

Natural sunlight is unpredictable. While "solar PUVA" is sometimes prescribed, it is extremely risky. It is much safer to use a controlled UVA lamp in a clinical setting to avoid severe burns.

How long does it take to see results?

Repigmentation is a slow process. It may take several weeks or months of consistent treatment sessions before small spots of pigment begin to appear within the white patches.

What happens if I get the solution on healthy skin?

The healthy skin will become extremely sensitive to light and may turn very dark or burn. Always use a precise applicator and wipe off any accidental drips immediately.

Where can I purchase authentic Meladinine Solution in Nigeria?

You can get your prescription filled at Sanlive Pharmacy & Stores for guaranteed quality and professional dermatological support.
