CompositionMHG Lotion is used to treat vitiligo, a skin condition that causes white patches due to the loss of pigment-producing cells. It promotes the growth and function of melanocytes, helping restore skin color in affected areas.
Use this lotion as directed by your doctor. Consult your doctor before starting the treatment, especially if you have any underlying conditions or other medications. Report any side effects promptly.
MHG Lotion is used to manage vitiligo by promoting repigmentation of the skin. It enhances melanocyte function and growth, helping restore skin tone in affected areas. It may also support wound healing and tissue repair due to the presence of growth factor Deca Peptide.
Here's how you should use MHG Lotion:
Ensure that your skin is clean and dry before application.
Apply a thin layer of lotion to the affected areas twice daily, preferably in the morning and evening.
Gently massage it into your skin until fully absorbed.
Remember to avoid contact with your eyes or mucous membranes during application.
Consult your doctor for comprehensive advice on usage.
MHG Lotion is applied topically.
MHG Lotion may cause side effects such as redness, itching, a burning sensation, or mild skin irritation at the application site. If these side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.
Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve upon discontinuing the use of MHG Lotion. 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:
Redness at the application site: Try applying MHG Lotion at night to help manage this symptom.
Burning sensation on the skin: Consider applying MHG Lotion after a cool bath or shower to lessen this effect.
MHG Lotion contains Deca Peptide (6 mg) as its active ingredient which functions in the following way:
Mimics Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (bFGF): Deca Peptide is a synthetic peptide that imitates the effect of bFGF. This is a protein that encourages the growth of cells and tissues in our body.
Stimulates Melanocytes: After applying MHG Lotion, Deca Peptide penetrates the skin and binds to specific receptors on melanocytes. This binding process prompts the melanocytes to multiply, differentiate, and migrate into the areas of the skin that have lost pigment.
Increases Melanin Production: The activation of melanocytes leads to an increase in the production of melanin, the pigment that gives our skin its colour. This gradual increase in melanin leads to the repigmentation of the white patches caused by vitiligo.
Caution is advised while using MHG Lotion if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before applying this lotion.
If you are breastfeeding, it's recommended to discuss the use of MHG Lotion with your doctor to understand potential risks and benefits.
The interaction of MHG Lotion with alcohol is currently unknown. Please consult your doctor for advice.
There's no specific information about the impact of MHG Lotion on liver health. However, it's always good practice to discuss any liver-related concerns with your doctor before applying this lotion.
MHG Lotion's effect on kidney health is not well established. If you have a history of kidney problems, it's important to consult your doctor before using this lotion.
MHG Lotion is a topical medicine and unlikely to affect your ability to operate machines or drive.
If you are allergic to Deca Peptide or any other ingredients in MHG Lotion, please inform your doctor.
MHG Lotion is not typically used in children. Always consult your doctor before using this medicine on a child.
Older patients should use MHG Lotion under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.
MHG Lotion interacts with the following medicines:
Exfoliating Agents (e.g., alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and retinoids): These can disrupt the skin barrier, which may increase peptide absorption but also risk irritation or reduce the peptide's effectiveness due to instability in low pH environments.
Strong Actives or Irritants (e.g., benzoyl peroxide, high concentrations of vitamin C): These can lead to irritation or reduce the stability of decapeptide. Benzoyl peroxide, in particular, can oxidize peptides, making them less effective.
Occlusive Ingredients (e.g., petrolatum, dimethicone): While these do not chemically interact with decapeptides, they can alter the penetration depth of the peptide by forming a barrier on the skin. This might enhance the effect in some cases, but can also hinder even distribution if applied first.
There are no known significant interactions between MHG Lotion and any food items.
MHG Lotion interacts with the following diseases:
Hypersensitivity: If you are allergic to any of the ingredients in MHG Lotion, using it could trigger an allergic reaction.
Skin Infections: Applying MHG Lotion on infected or severely inflamed skin can worsen the condition.
Open Wounds: The lotion should not be applied to open wounds as it may delay healing and increase risk of infection.
Adhere strictly to your doctor's instructions while using MHG Lotion. Your daily dose will be determined by factors such as the severity of your condition and your response to the medicine. Never modify the dosage without consulting your doctor.
If you accidentally apply more MHG Lotion than prescribed, you may experience temporary skin reactions like redness or itching. If these effects persist or worsen, inform your doctor.
In case you forget to apply MHG Lotion at the scheduled time, do it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular schedule. Always consult your doctor before changing the dosage.
Store MHG Lotion at room temperature, ideally below 25 degrees Celsius.
Keep it away from direct sunlight, heat, and dampness.
Don't store it in your bathroom or kitchen.
Always keep this lotion out of the reach of children.
Make sure to use it before the expiry date printed on the package.
Since MHG Lotion is used to manage vitiligo, maintaining a diet rich in vitamin B12, folic acid, copper and zinc can help support skin health. Foods like dairy products, eggs, seafood, nuts and seeds are good sources of these nutrients.
Avoid excessive sun exposure. When you're outdoors during peak sun hours, always use protective clothing and a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin from harmful UV rays. This is particularly important for people with vitiligo as their skin is more susceptible to sunburn.

MHG Lotion is primarily used to manage vitiligo, a skin condition causing white patches due to loss of pigment-producing cells.
MHG Lotion contains Deca Peptide, which stimulates growth and function of melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing skin pigment.
You should apply a thin layer of MHG Lotion to the affected skin areas twice daily, gently massaging until completely absorbed.
The common side effects include skin reactions at the application site such as redness, itching, and mild irritation.
The safety and efficacy of MHG Lotion in pregnant or breastfeeding women have not been established. Consult your doctor before using it.
Inform your doctor about all medications you are using before starting treatment with MHG Lotion to avoid potential incompatibilities or increased risk of skin irritation.
The duration varies depending on the extent and severity of vitiligo, but it typically takes several months to see noticeable results.
