How It Works
Soolantra Cream contains 1% ivermectin, an antiparasitic and anti-inflammatory agent. It is believed to target *Demodex* mites, microscopic organisms that live on the skin and are found in higher numbers on rosacea-affected skin.
Ivermectin works by paralyzing and eliminating these mites while also reducing skin inflammation. This dual-action mechanism helps clear the red bumps and pustules associated with rosacea, particularly subtype II (papulopustular rosacea).
Why Choose Soolantra Cream
Soolantra Cream is one of the few prescription-only topical treatments designed specifically for rosacea. It offers:
Proven effectiveness in reducing inflammatory lesions
Once-daily application for convenience
Anti-inflammatory and anti-mite properties
Suitable for long-term maintenance after improvement
Cosmetic-friendly formulation with no fragrance
In clinical studies, users experienced a significant reduction in papules and pustules compared to placebo or alternative treatments like metronidazole. Soolantra is also non-comedogenic, making it safe for acne-prone skin.
Important Note
Soolantra should be used exactly as prescribed. Apply a thin layer to affected areas once daily, avoiding eyes, lips, and inside the nostrils. It is for external use only. Do not use on broken or irritated skin. Results may take several weeks, and use should continue even if symptoms temporarily worsen before improving.
If no improvement is seen after 12 weeks, consult your doctor. Continue using as directed to maintain results. Discontinue use if you experience severe irritation, allergic reaction, or worsening symptoms.
