Calibin 0.25mg Capsule

Calibin 0.25mg Capsule, made by RG Pharmacutica Pvt Ltd, is a vitamin D analogue skin treatment. Its active ingredient is Calcipotriol 0.25mg, and it is used for psoriasis and scalp psoriasis. Pack size: 30 capsules.

Uses of Calibin 0.25mg Capsule

Calibin 0.25mg Capsule cream, ointment or scalp solution is used to treat mild to moderate plaque psoriasis on the body and scalp. It reduces the thickness, scaling and redness of psoriasis patches and may be used alone or with a topical steroid, sometimes combined in the same product. It controls psoriasis rather than making it go away permanently, so flare-ups may need repeat treatment.

How Calibin 0.25mg Capsule works

Calcipotriol is a synthetic form of vitamin D. In psoriasis, skin cells multiply far too quickly and build up into thick, scaly plaques. Calcipotriol slows this overgrowth and helps the cells mature normally, while also calming some of the inflammation in the skin.

Possible side effects

Calibin 0.25mg Capsule may irritate the skin, especially at first. Common reactions include:

• Burning or stinging
• Itching
• Redness
• Dry or peeling skin
• Temporary worsening of psoriasis

Stop using it and see a doctor if you develop severe irritation or a widespread rash, or symptoms of high calcium such as extreme thirst, passing a lot of urine, constipation, muscle weakness or confusion.

Precautions and warnings

• Do not use more than your doctor recommends or apply it over very large areas, as too much can raise blood calcium levels.
• Avoid the face and skin folds, which are easily irritated, and wash your hands after each application.
• Tell your doctor if you have kidney disease or problems with calcium levels.
• Avoid strong sunlight and sunbeds on treated skin, and let your doctor know if you are having UV light therapy.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, use Calibin 0.25mg Capsule only on medical advice, and do not apply it to the breasts when breastfeeding.
