Dsorolen Tablet 10 is used to treat skin conditions such as vitiligo and psoriasis. It belongs to a class of medications called photosensitisers, which work by making the skin more sensitive to ultraviolet light.

In addition to treating vitiligo, which causes white patches on the skin due to loss of pigment, this medicine is also used for managing psoriasis. Psoriasis is a condition where skin cells build up rapidly, creating scaly patches that can be itchy and uncomfortable.

This medicine should be taken as directed by your doctor. Inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications before beginning this treatment. If you notice any side effects while using this medicine, inform your doctor immediately. Continue taking the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Dsorolen Tablet 10 is used for the following:

Treatment of vitiligo
Management of white patches on skin
Restoring skin pigmentation
Addressing skin discolouration
Therapy for psoriasis
Reducing excessive skin cell growth
Controlling skin cell build-up

Follow these instructions while taking Dsorolen Tablet 10:

Take this medicine with a full glass of water.
Swallow the tablet whole without crushing, breaking, or chewing it.
You may need to continue the medicine as advised even if you feel better.

Dsorolen Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Dsorolen Tablet 10 may have the following common side effects:

Nausea
Itching
Redness on treated skin areas
Irritation on treated skin areas
Photosensitivity: When your skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight and may burn more easily after taking this medicine.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Dsorolen Tablet 10. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor. Here are some ways to manage common side effects:

Nausea: Try taking Dsorolen Tablet 10 after meals to reduce stomach discomfort.
Photosensitivity: Take this medicine in the evening if you need to be outdoors during the day, as sensitivity to sunlight can last for about 8 hours after taking the tablet.

Dsorolen Tablet 10 contains trioxsalen (5 mg), which works on the body as follows:

Photosensitisation: Trioxsalen makes your skin more sensitive to ultraviolet light, particularly UV-A rays, which is essential for its therapeutic effect.
DNA cross-linking: When activated by UV light, trioxsalen creates links between DNA strands in skin cells, which can help control the excessive growth of skin cells seen in conditions like psoriasis.
Re-pigmentation: In vitiligo treatment, trioxsalen helps restore colour to white patches by stimulating pigment-producing cells when combined with controlled UV-A exposure.
Cell regulation: The medicine helps normalise the rapid turnover of skin cells that occurs in psoriasis, reducing the formation of scaly patches.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant, then exercise caution while taking Dsorolen Tablet 10. It is ideal to discuss with your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Take caution while taking Dsorolen Tablet 10, if you are breastfeeding. It is best to inform your doctor before taking this medicine.

Alcohol

Caution is advised when consuming alcohol while taking Dsorolen Tablet 10. Alcohol might increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight, which could worsen side effects.

Liver

Dsorolen Tablet 10 should be used with care if you have pre-existing liver conditions. Discuss your liver health with your doctor before starting this medicine.

Kidney

If you have a history of any kidney problems, then it is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

You may experience increased sensitivity to light after taking Dsorolen Tablet 10. Take extra care when driving or operating machinery, especially during daylight hours or in bright environments.

Allergy

If you have a known allergy to trioxsalen or other ingredient of Dsorolen Tablet 10, tell your doctor about any previous allergic reactions to medicines.

Children

Caution is advised while giving Dsorolen Tablet 10 to children under 14 years of age. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.
