This cream is dispensed in a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and controlled application on the skin. The cream is designed to be absorbed by the skin, delivering the active ingredients directly to the affected area for localized treatment.
Acetylcysteine, also known as N-acetylcysteine (NAC), is a medication that is primarily used to treat acetaminophen (Paracetamol) overdose and to loosen thick mucus in individuals with cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is also an antioxidant that helps replenish glutathione levels in the lungs and reduces inflammation in the bronchial tubes and lung tissue. In this topical formulation, Acetylcysteine works by breaking down keratin, a protein that forms part of the skin structure. This action helps to soften the skin and increase its flexibility, reducing the symptoms of dry, scaly skin conditions.
Nicotinamide, also known as Niacinamide, is a form of vitamin B3 that has several uses in dermatology. It has been shown to improve the skin barrier, decrease skin hyperpigmentation, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, decrease redness and sallowness, and improve skin elasticity. It works by helping the skin to repair itself and by reducing inflammation. It also plays a crucial role in the production of energy in skin cells, which is essential for maintaining healthy skin.
Together, Acetylcysteine and Nicotinamide in this topical cream work synergistically to treat a variety of skin conditions. The cream can be used to treat conditions such as acne, rosacea, and other inflammatory skin conditions. It can also be used to improve the appearance of aging skin, by reducing wrinkles and improving skin elasticity.

If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.
