Medication Name

Estriol 0.25% / Niacinamide 4% / Vitamin E 1%
Formulation Type: Compounded Medication

Purpose and Benefits

This compounded face cream is designed to promote skin health and appearance by leveraging the combined effects of:

  • Estriol 0.25%: A mild estrogen that helps improve skin elasticity, hydration, and texture, giving your skin a more youthful glow.
  • Niacinamide 4%: A form of Vitamin B3 that reduces redness, minimizes pore size, and improves overall skin tone for a brighter complexion.
  • Vitamin E 1%: An antioxidant that protects the skin from free radical damage and enhances moisture retention for long-lasting hydration.

Directions for Use

Application:

  • Apply two clicks from the unodose dispenser, which provides 0.5mL of cream, to clean, dry skin once daily, preferably in the evening.

  1. Dispense the cream using the unodose dispenser.
  2. Gently massage the cream into the face and neck until fully absorbed.
  3. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

Storage Instructions

Common Side Effects
