FAQs

What precautions should I take while using Qauliderm Plus Cream?

Qauliderm Plus Cream should not be used on the face and contact with eyes should be avoided.

What would happen if I use a higher than the recommended dose of Qauliderm Plus Cream and for long periods?

The dosage and duration of Qauliderm Plus Cream should be strictly according to the doctor’s advice.

It can cause weight gain, high blood pressure and rounding of the face. Its application can cause a change in color of skin at the site of application. Veins beneath the skin become visible because of the thinning and weakening of the skin. There could also be an increased hair growth. If you experience an increased severity of your symptoms, please consult your doctor for re-evaluation.

What are the instructions for the storage and disposal of Qauliderm Plus Cream?

Keep this medicine in the container or the pack it came in, tightly closed. Store it according to the instructions mentioned on the pack or label. Dispose of the unused medicine. Make sure it is not consumed by pets, children and other people.
