Description
What is Soolantra Cream?
Soolantra Cream is a prescription medication used to treat the bumps and blemishes associated with rosacea. This condition, also known as acne rosacea, can be difficult to manage. Soolantra Cream helps to reduce the inflammation and redness associated with this condition.
How Does Soolantra Cream Work?
Soolantra Cream is an FDA-approved medication used to treat the inflammatory lesions of rosacea. The active ingredient in Soolantra Cream, ivermectin, belongs to a class of drugs called anti-parasitic agents. Ivermectin works by killing Demodex mites, which are tiny parasitic insects that live on the skin and cause rosacea. Ivermectin also prevents the growth and reproduction of these mites, thus reducing the inflammation and redness they cause.
