Mirvaso Gel

Mirvaso is a topical treatment for rosacea that works by constricting blood vessels in the skin, effectively reducing redness and improving the appearance of affected areas. It is suitable for adults over 18 years old and is applied directly to the face once daily.

The active ingredient, brimonidine, is an alpha blocker that reduces surface blood flow in the skin. When applied to reddened areas, it provides noticeable relief from rosacea symptoms within minutes, with effects lasting up to 12 hours.

1. Apply a small, pea-sized amount to each area of the face (cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead).
2. Smooth the gel thinly and evenly on dry skin, avoiding contact with the eyes and lips.
3. Wash your hands after use to prevent unintentional transfer to other areas.
4. Use once daily and do not exceed the recommended dose.

Common side effects include redness, burning, flushing, and itching at the application site. In rare cases, symptoms such as low blood pressure, slow heart rate, or dizziness may occur. Stop using Mirvaso and consult a doctor if symptoms worsen.

• Do not use if under 18 years of age or if you have poor circulation, low blood pressure, or serious heart conditions.
• Avoid use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
• Avoid using Mirvaso with medications like MAO inhibitors, beta blockers, or blood pressure medicines.
• Alcohol may worsen rosacea symptoms and should be avoided.
