Medicinal Benefits

Pigolyn Lotion belongs to a class of medicines called 'photosensitizer' used along with UV-A rays. This medicine is used for the treatment of psoriasis and vitiligo. In psoriasis, it works by reducing the overproduction of skin cells. In vitiligo, it activates certain skin cells (melanocytes) and helps re-pigment the discoloured, white patches. It is also used for the treatment of seborrhea (a common skin problem it causes a red, itchy rash and white scales. When it affects the scalp, it is called dandruff) and ichthyosis (an inherited skin disorder in which dead skin cells accumulate in thick, dry scales on your skin's surface).

About Pigolyn Lotion

Pigolyn Lotion belongs to a class of medicines called 'photosensitizer', which are used in the treatment of psoriasis and vitiligo. Psoriasis is a skin disease that causes red, itchy, scaly patches, most commonly on the knees, elbows, trunk and scalp. Vitiligo is a condition in which the skin loses its pigment cells (melanocytes). This can result in discoloured patches in different areas of the body, including the skin, hair, and mucous membranes.

Pigolyn Lotion contains “trioxsalen”, which is a photosensitive medication used along with UV-A rays. In psoriasis, it works by reducing the overproduction of skin cells. In vitiligo, it activates certain skin cells (melanocytes) and helps re-pigment the discoloured, white patches.

Pigolyn Lotion is an external preparation. Do not consume it. In case of accidental ingestion, seek immediate medical help. Use it as advised by your physician. Do not apply in larger or smaller amounts than recommended. You may have common side effects like erythema (skin redness), blisters on the skin, edema (swelling), and itching. These side effects resolve over time. However, if these side effects persist, stop using it and consult your doctor.

Pigolyn Lotion should not be used if you are allergic to it. Inform your doctor if you are using any topical medicines other than this medicine and if you are pregnant/breastfeeding. It should be used with caution in patients who are allergic to sunlight, porphyria, heart disease, cataracts, skin cancers and lupus erythematosus condition.
