Erythego Gel is used for the following:

Management of persistent facial erythema or redness linked with rosacea. Rosacea refers to a chronic skin condition causing redness, flushing, and sometimes spots on the face.
Reduction of facial flushing associated with rosacea. This refers to a sensation of warmth and noticeable redness in the face.

Follow these instructions while using Erythego Gel :

Ensure the affected skin area on your face is clean and dry.
Apply a thin layer of the gel smoothly and evenly to each affected area of your face, such as forehead, chin, nose, and each cheek.
Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and mucous membranes.
Wash your hands immediately after applying the gel.

Erythego Gel is applied topically.

Erythego Gel may have the following side effects:

Erythema: This is a medical term for skin redness.
Flushing
Skin burning sensation: This refers to a feeling of heat or discomfort on your skin.
Contact dermatitis: This is a skin rash caused by contact with certain substances.
Headache
Paresthesia: This refers to an abnormal sensation on your skin, such as tingling or numbness.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Erythego Gel. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Skin burning sensation: Applying Erythego Gel in a cool environment can help manage this effect.
Flushing: Apply a cold compress or soothing aloe vera gel to calm flushed skin.

Erythego Gel contains a single active ingredient, brimonidine (3.3 mg). Here's how it works:

Alpha-2 Adrenergic Agonist: Brimonidine reduces sympathetic nervous system activity by decreasing the release of neurotransmitters.
Constricts Blood Vessels: One of the effects of brimonidine is that it causes the blood vessels in your skin to constrict, or narrow. This happens because brimonidine activates the alpha-2 receptors in the blood vessels.
Reduces Blood Flow: With the blood vessels narrowed, less blood flows to the surface of your skin. This helps to reduce the redness and flushing associated with rosacea.
Skin Appearance: As a result of these actions, brimonidine helps to manage the visible symptoms of rosacea, making your skin appear less red and flushed.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while using Erythego Gel if you are pregnant. It's best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

It's not known if brimonidine, the active ingredient in Erythego Gel, is excreted in human milk. Therefore, it's wise to consult your doctor before using this medicine if you're breastfeeding.

Alcohol

There is no known interaction between alcohol and Erythego Gel. However, it's always a good idea to ask your doctor about this.

Liver

No specific information is available on the use of Erythego Gel in patients with liver diseases. If you have any liver health issues, it's recommended to talk to your doctor before using this medicine.

Kidney

There's no specific information on the use of Erythego Gel in patients with kidney diseases. Therefore, if you have any kidney health concerns, please discuss them with your doctor before using this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Erythego Gel is a topical application and does not generally affect your ability to drive or operate machines. However, if you experience side effects like dizziness or fatigue, avoid such activities.

Allergy

Erythego Gel should not be used if you're allergic to brimonidine or any other component of the formulation. If you experience any allergic reactions, stop using it and consult your doctor immediately.

Children

Erythego Gel should not be used in children below 18 years of age as safety and efficacy have not been established for this age group.

Older Patients

There are no overall differences reported in the safety or efficacy of Erythego Gel between elderly and younger patients. However, older patients should always consult their doctor before starting new medication.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Erythego Gel interacts with the following medicines:

Other Topical Alpha-2 Agonists (e.g., clonidine): Combining multiple alpha-2 agonists can increase the risk of systemic side effects like drowsiness, dizziness, or low blood pressure due to the additive effects on the alpha-2 receptors.
Topical Vasoconstrictors (e.g., oxymetazoline): Using other vasoconstrictors simultaneously may intensify the risk of skin irritation or excessive vasoconstriction, leading to redness or discomfort.
Other Topical Medications for Rosacea (e.g., metronidazole, azelaic acid): There are no significant interactions, but combining therapies should be done cautiously to avoid skin irritation or excessive drying. Proper spacing between applications (at least 5-10 minutes) is recommended.
Topical Retinoids (e.g., tretinoin): Using brimonidine with topical retinoids may increase the risk of skin irritation or dryness, especially for sensitive skin.

Drug-Food Interactions

Drug-Disease Interactions

Erythego Gel interacts with the following diseases:

Cardiovascular disease: Patients with heart conditions need to use Erythego Gel carefully as it can potentially affect blood pressure control.
Liver disease: People with liver problems should exercise caution while using Erythego Gel as it could potentially increase their health risks.
Kidney disease: Individuals suffering from kidney diseases should use Erythego Gel cautiously as it may alter the action of the medicine in the body.

Daily Dose

Your doctor will prescribe the daily dose of Erythego Gel based on your individual condition and response to the medication. Always adhere to this prescribed dosage.

Over Dose

Applying more Erythego Gel than advised might intensify side effects like skin redness or flushing. If you've overused, don't panic; inform your doctor if symptoms persist.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply Erythego Gel, do it as soon as you remember. If it's close to your next application time, skip the missed dose and continue your regular schedule. Never increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Store Erythego Gel at room temperature, ideally below 30°C, away from direct sunlight.
Keep the container tightly closed when not in use to avoid exposure to air and moisture.
Always keep this medicine out of sight and reach of children.
Use Erythego Gel prior to the expiry date clearly marked on the packaging.

Regular physical activity can help manage rosacea symptoms. It's important to cool down after exercise since heat can trigger rosacea flare-ups.
Limit consumption of spicy foods and alcohol, as they can dilate your blood vessels, increasing redness on your face.
