About Sucral Cream

Sucral Cream is used to treat wounds and skin injuries, including grazes, cuts, surgical wounds, and burns. It is also used to treat poorly healing varicose ulcers and bedsores. Wounds are breaks or tears in the skin or underlying tissues caused by physical injury, such as cuts, abrasions, or surgical procedures.

It is generally well tolerated, with no significant adverse effects reported. In rare cases, it may cause mild reactions such as burning, irritation, itching, or redness at the application site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, consult your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Sucral Cream is for external use only. Before using Sucral Cream, inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Do not apply Sucral Cream in large amounts or for prolonged periods. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before use.
