Overview

Vizomet Cream is a cream with Mometasone furoate 0.1% declared as its active content. It is supplied in a pack size of 15g.

This is a non-prescription product and can be purchased without a prescription. Only product, safety and handling details are published on this page.

An online consultation with a DoctorOnCall doctor or pharmacist is available for this product, and a registered pharmacist reviews each order before dispatch to Malaysia or Singapore. Follow the directions on the label and on the leaflet inside the pack.

Directions for Use

Use Vizomet Cream only on the skin area and for the duration advised by the prescribing doctor. Wash and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer of cream once daily, gently rubbing it in until it disappears, and wash your hands afterwards unless the hands are the area being treated. Avoid applying it to the face, groin or underarms unless your doctor has specifically instructed you to do so, and do not cover the treated area with an occlusive dressing unless directed.

Dosage

A thin film of Vizomet Cream is generally applied once daily to the affected skin, and most courses are limited to a short period, commonly up to a few weeks, as advised by the prescribing doctor; treatment on the face, skin folds or in children is usually for an even shorter duration and at closer medical supervision. Do not increase the frequency or amount applied without consulting your doctor, as this does not speed up healing and increases the risk of side effects.

Shelf Life

When stored correctly and unopened, Vizomet Cream is generally stable until the expiry date printed on the tube and carton; once opened, it is best used within the period stated by the manufacturer, and the expiry date should always be checked before each use.

Storage Instructions

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, keep the tube tightly closed after use, and do not store in the bathroom if it is prone to heat and humidity. Keep out of the reach and sight of children.

Side Effects

  • Skin irritation or dryness (for topical use)
  • Nosebleeds (for nasal spray use)
  • Headache
  • Throat irritation
  • Cough or hoarseness (inhaled form)
  • Burning or stinging sensation after application

Contraindications

  • Known allergy or hypersensitivity to mometasone furoate or other corticosteroids
  • Untreated bacterial, fungal or viral skin infections (including cold sores, chickenpox and shingles) at the application site
  • Rosacea, perioral dermatitis or acne unless specifically directed by a doctor
  • Broken or ulcerated skin unless advised otherwise by the prescribing doctor
  • Use on the face, groin or underarms for prolonged periods without medical supervision
  • Children, without a doctor’s specific dosing and duration instructions

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Other topical corticosteroids or medicated creams applied to the same area: additive risk of skin thinning
  • Occlusive dressings, bandages or tight clothing over the treated area: increases absorption and side-effect risk
  • Other immunosuppressant medicines: may add to any systemic effect if extensive areas are treated long-term
  • Live vaccines: discuss timing with your doctor if you are using extensive or long-term topical steroid treatment

Quick Tips

  • Apply only a thin layer; more cream does not mean faster results and increases side-effect risk
  • Use for the shortest duration that controls your symptoms, as advised by your doctor
  • Avoid using on the face, groin or underarms unless specifically instructed
  • Do not use an occlusive dressing over the area unless told to by your doctor
  • Moisturise the surrounding skin regularly to support the skin barrier
  • Return to your doctor if there is no improvement, or if the condition worsens, after the advised treatment period

Ingredients / Active Ingredients

  • Mometasone furoate 0.1% (active ingredient)

Relevant Information

Vizomet Cream should be used with particular care in children, on the face, and on skin folds, where the skin is thinner and absorption is higher; your doctor may recommend a shorter course or a lower-potency alternative for these areas. Long-term or widespread use of moderately potent topical steroids like mometasone furoate should be reviewed periodically by a doctor, and any signs of skin thinning, stretch marks or infection at the treated site should be reported promptly.
