● Features
Muhi's carefully crafted effective insect bite and itch relief medicine <cream type>
● Damage caused by poisonous insects is increasing.
Recently, due to global warming, the pet boom, and the development of urban parks, opportunities to be bitten by poisonous insects that were not previously common around us have increased. Especially bites from poisonous insects such as mites, fleas, caterpillars, centipedes, and jellyfish tend to cause intense itching and inflammation that conventional insect bite medicines cannot adequately address.
● A formulation focused on effectiveness combining "PVA + Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride."
Muhi Alpha EX is a cream-type anti-itch medicine developed for such insect bites. It combines an antedrug-type anti-inflammatory ingredient effective against inflammation (PVA: Prednisolone Valerate Acetate) with a fast-acting anti-itch ingredient (Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride) in a formulation focused on effectiveness. It is effective not only for mosquito bites but also for bites and itching caused by mites, fleas, caterpillars, centipedes, jellyfish, and others.
■ (1) Antedrug-type anti-inflammatory ingredient
PVA effectively treats the "inflammation" that causes insect bites and itching.
■ (2) Anti-itch ingredient
Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride blocks the action of histamine, the substance causing itching, suppressing the source of itching.
■ (3) Cooling ingredients
l-Menthol and dl-Camphor provide a refreshing cooling sensation that quickly soothes the itching sensation.
■ PVA is a steroid ingredient classified as highly effective among general medicines. It exhibits excellent anti-inflammatory effects at the affected site and then changes into a low-activity substance. Therefore, it has characteristics that make steroid-specific side effects less likely. This characteristic is called an antedrug. PVA is an ingredient with an excellent balance of efficacy and safety.
● Muhi Alpha EX is suitable not only for insect bites but also for treating eczema and dermatitis.
