1. What is Mometasone Viso Farmacéutica and what is it used for

Mometasone Viso Farmacéutica belongs to a group of medicines called topical corticosteroids. It is classified as a “high potency corticosteroid”. These medicines are applied to the skin to reduce redness and itching caused by certain skin problems.

In adults and children from 2 to 18 years, Mometasone Viso Farmacéutica is used to reduce redness and itching caused by certain skin disorders, called psoriasis or dermatitis.

Psoriasis is a skin disease in which itching, scaling, and pink spots develop on the elbows, knees, scalp, and other parts of the body.

Dermatitis is a disease caused by the skin's reaction to external agents such as detergents, causing redness and itching of the skin.

Follow the instructions for administration of this medicine exactly as indicated by your doctor. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have any doubts.

Never apply more than this amount, nor more frequently than indicated by your doctor or pharmacist.

Be especially careful:

  • Do not use the cream on the face for more than 5 days.
  • Do not use the cream on children in any area of the body for more than 5 days. Do not use the cream under your child's diaper, as this makes it easier for the active ingredient to pass through the skin and may cause some side effects.
  • Consult your doctor before covering the treated area with bandages or dressings. Areas of the face or in children should not be covered with bandages or dressings.
  • Do not apply the cream to large areas of the body for a prolonged period (e.g., every day for several weeks or months).
