Question 1

What is Melamet used for?

Accepted Answer

Melamet contains Hydroquinone Tretinoin Mometasone and is primarily prescribed by dermatologists for moderate-to-severe acne that has not responded to topical treatments or antibiotics. It is also used for certain other skin conditions including sebaceous hyperplasia and prevention of acne relapse.

Question 2

What strengths does Melamet come in?

Accepted Answer

Melamet is available in one strength — 15g. The prescribed dose is typically calculated based on body weight (0.5–1 mg/kg per day) with the aim of reaching a cumulative treatment dose over 4–6 months.

Question 3

How long does Melamet take to work?

Accepted Answer

Most patients see a significant improvement in acne after 6–8 weeks of Melamet treatment. The full course typically takes 4–6 months. Some patients experience a temporary flare-up in the first few weeks before improvement begins.

Question 4

What are the most common side effects of Melamet?

Accepted Answer

The most common side effects are dry lips, dry skin, and increased sun sensitivity. These are expected and manageable with regular moisturising and lip balm. More serious but less common effects include elevated liver enzymes, raised triglycerides, and mood changes — your doctor will monitor these with regular blood tests.

Question 5

Is Melamet safe for women?

Accepted Answer

Melamet is strictly contraindicated in pregnancy — Hydroquinone Tretinoin Mometasone causes severe birth defects. Women of childbearing potential must use two reliable forms of contraception throughout treatment and for one month after stopping. Monthly pregnancy tests are mandatory in most prescribing protocols.

Question 6

Is Melamet the same as Accutane?

Accepted Answer

Yes — Melamet contains the same active ingredient (Hydroquinone Tretinoin Mometasone) as Accutane, Roaccutane, and other isotretinoin brands. Accutane was the original branded version. Melamet is a generic form manufactured to the same pharmacological specification.

Question 7

Do I need a prescription for Melamet?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Hydroquinone Tretinoin Mometasone at any dose requires a dermatologist prescription because of its significant side effect profile, particularly the teratogenicity risk. MEDIONIX PHARMA supplies Melamet to licensed medical professionals and pharmacies internationally.

Question 8

How should Melamet be stored?

Accepted Answer

Store Melamet at room temperature (15°C–25°C) away from light and moisture. Keep capsules in the original blister pack until use. Do not store in a bathroom cabinet where humidity can degrade the product.
