Neo-Medrol is a potent, clinical-grade topical suspension specifically engineered for the intensive treatment of inflammatory acne and various skin disorders. It contains a high-precision combination of Methylprednisolone (2.5mg), Neomycin Sulfate (2.5mg), and Sulfur (25mg). This triple-action formula works by simultaneously suppressing skin inflammation, eradicating acne-causing bacteria, and drying out excess sebum (oil). It provides a foundational solution for patients dealing with painful, red, or infected acne lesions that have not responded to standard over-the-counter washes.
Product Type: Topical Anti-inflammatory + Antibiotic + Keratolytic
Active Ingredients: Methylprednisolone, Neomycin Sulfate, and Sulfur
Manufacturer: Pfizer (Quality-Assured Global Standard)
Pack Size: 25ml or 60ml Bottle (Plastic/Glass)
Route: Topical (External Skin Use Only)
Availability: Strictly Prescription Required (POM) — Requires dermatological assessment
Suitable For: Adults and adolescents with inflammatory acne or seborrheic dermatitis
The Neo-Medrol formulation is a primary choice for acute skin stabilization:
Inflammatory Acne Vulgaris: Reducing the redness, swelling, and pain of "angry" pimples and pustules.
Infected Dermatitis: Managing skin rashes where a secondary bacterial infection is present.
Seborrheic Dermatitis: Treating oily, scaly patches on the face or hairline.
Acne Rosacea: Providing rapid anti-inflammatory relief for persistent facial flushing and bumps.
Thinning of Skin (Atrophy): Because it contains a corticosteroid (Methylprednisolone), long-term use on the face can lead to thinning of the skin, visible "spider veins," or permanent skin discoloration. The "Eye" Rule: Never apply near the eyes or eyelids; contact can lead to increased eye pressure or glaucoma. Sulfur Sensitivity: If you have a known allergy to "Sulfa" drugs, use this with extreme caution. Masking Infection: Steroids can sometimes mask a fungal infection; if your rash gets worse or spreads, stop use immediately. Sun Sensitivity: The Sulfur component can make your skin more sensitive to the Nigerian sun; daily use of a non-comedogenic sunscreen is mandatory.
For maximum efficacy, Neo-Medrol should be applied sparingly to the affected areas only, rather than the entire face.
Standard Application:
Adults: Typically applied one (1) to two (2) times daily.
Application Tips:
Shake Well: The lotion is a suspension; you must shake the bottle vigorously before each use to ensure the active ingredients are properly mixed.
Clean & Dry: Wash your face with a mild, soap-free cleanser and pat dry. Wait 10 minutes before applying the lotion to reduce irritation.
"Spot" Treatment: Apply a thin film only to the pimples or the affected rash. Do not "slather" it on like a moisturizer.
Wash Hands: Always wash your hands immediately after application to avoid transferring the steroid to sensitive areas like your eyes or mouth.
Duration: This is a short-term treatment. Do not use for more than 2 weeks unless specifically directed by your doctor.
Common side effects include temporary stinging, localized dryness, or peeling (due to the sulfur). You may notice a slight "sulfur" smell (like eggs) upon application, which is normal. If you experience severe burning, persistent itching, or the appearance of white stretch marks, contact Sanlive Pharmacy or your dermatologist immediately.
Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C, protected from direct sunlight. Keep the cap tightly closed to prevent the lotion from drying out. Keep out of reach of children.
Q: Is it a "Bleaching Cream"?
A: No. While it may reduce the redness of a pimple, it is not for skin lightening. Misusing it for bleaching can cause severe, permanent skin damage.
Q: Can I use it for "Eczema"?
A: If the eczema is infected with bacteria, your doctor may prescribe this. However, for plain eczema, a steroid-only cream without Sulfur is usually preferred.
Q: Can I apply "Makeup" over it?
A: Yes, once the lotion has dried completely. However, try to use "non-comedogenic" makeup that won't clog your pores and undo the work of the medicine.
Q: Is it safe for "Pregnant" women?
A: Topical steroids and antibiotics should only be used during pregnancy if the benefit outweighs the risk. Consult your specialist at Sanlive Pharmacy before use.
