Indications

Pramoxine Hydrochloride + Calamine is used for short-term relief of pain and itching from minor burns, sunburns, minor cuts and scrapes, insect bites, and minor skin irritations and rashes.

Pharmacology

Pramoxine Hydrochloride blocks the Na+ ion channels in the membranes of nerve cells. This stops pain signals from being passed on, and that is how it works as a local anaesthetic. Calamine gives a cooling feeling on the skin and helps relieve itching.
