Chemical Structure

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY: Urea gently dissolves the intercellular matrix, which results in loosening the horny layer of skin while shedding scaly skin at regular intervals, which then softens the hyperkeratotic areas. Urea also hydrates and gently dissolves the intercellular matrix of the nail plate, which can result in the softening and eventual debridement of the nail plate.

PHARMACOKINETICS: The mechanism of action of topically applied urea is not yet known.

INDICATIONS AND USES: For debridement and promotion of normal healing of hyperkeratotic surface lesions, particularly where healing is retarded by local infection, necrotic tissue, fibrinous or purulent debris or eschar. Urea is useful for the treatment of hyper-keratotic conditions such as dry, rough skin, dermatitis, psoriasis, ichthyosis, keratoderma, eczema, keratosis pilaris, keratosis palmaris, xerosis, corns and calluses, as well as damaged, devitalized, and ingrown nails.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Known hypersensitivity to any of the listed ingredients.

WARNINGS: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, lips or mucous membranes.

PRECAUTIONS: This medication is to be used as directed by a physician and should not be used to treat any condition other than that for which it was prescribed. If redness or irritation occurs, discontinue use.

PREGNANCY: Pregnancy Category B. Animal reproduction studies have revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus; however, there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, Urea Emulsion 50% should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.

NURSING MOTHERS: It is not known whether or not this drug is secreted in human milk. Because many drugs are secreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when Urea Emulsion 50% is administered to a nursing women.

KEEP THIS AND ALL MEDICATIONS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

ADVERSE REACTIONS: Transient stinging, burning, itching or irritation may occur and normally disappear upon discontinuing the medication.

Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects.
