Managing the Side Effects:

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

Kaylite Cream contains three active ingredients:

Hydroquinone (2%): As a skin-bleaching agent, hydroquinone works by reducing the production of melanin pigments in your skin cells. This action helps lighten dark patches on the skin.
Tretinoin (0.025%): Known as a retinoid, tretinoin promotes skin cell turnover. This action helps clear up blemishes and reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles.
Mometasone (0.1%): Classified as a topical corticosteroid, mometasone reduces inflammation and itching caused by certain skin conditions by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers that cause inflammation.
