Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does CEM-Urea Work?

Urea works by softening the keratin in the outermost layer of the skin, which helps to break down hardened skin and promote the shedding of dead skin cells. It also draws moisture into the skin, acting as a humectant, which helps improve hydration and skin texture. This dual action makes CEM-Urea effective for treating thick, dry, and scaly skin conditions.

Common Dosages

  • Mild to moderate skin conditions: 20% urea cream or lotion, applied once or twice daily to the affected area.
  • Severe skin conditions or hyperkeratosis: 40% urea cream, applied twice daily or as directed by a healthcare provider.

Typical Dosing

  • Administration: CEM-Urea is applied topically to the affected areas of the skin. The skin should be clean and dry before applying a thin layer of the cream or lotion. Gently massage the medication into the skin until it is absorbed.
  • Frequency: Typically applied once or twice daily, depending on the severity of the condition.
  • Duration of Use: Duration varies depending on the condition, with some patients requiring long-term use for chronic conditions.

Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Dry and Rough Skin Conditions: Such as ichthyosis, xerosis, and keratosis.
  • Hyperkeratotic Conditions: Including calluses and corns.
  • Psoriasis and Eczema: To reduce scaling and roughness of the skin.
  • Nail Disorders: To treat brittle nails or thickened toenails.
