  • Description

    Sodium metabisulfite cream primarily exerts its therapeutic effects through its ability to release sulfur dioxide (SO2) upon contact with water or moisture on the skin. This release of sulfur dioxide is the key component of its mechanism of action. When applied topically, the sulfur dioxide acts as a potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. It scavenges reactive oxygen species and free radicals, helping to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the skin. Additionally, sulfur dioxide may have a mild antimicrobial effect, contributing to its overall therapeutic action in various dermatological conditions. The localized release of sulfur dioxide from sodium metabisulfite cream allows for targeted treatment of affected skin areas.

If you frequently miss doses, consider setting reminders or using a medication tracking app to help you stay on track. Consult your healthcare provider if you have concerns or if you miss multiple doses.
