Vaniqa Cream (active ingredient: eflornithine) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Unwanted Facial Hair: Vaniqa Cream is used to reduce the growth of unwanted facial hair in women.

Vaniqa Cream belongs to a class of drugs known as enzyme inhibitors, which work by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme involved in hair growth. This helps to slow down the growth of facial hair, leading to smoother and less noticeable skin.

Vaniqa cream is a topical cream that is applied to the affected area twice a day, at least eight hours apart. Here are the general steps for how to use Vaniqa cream:

To use Vaniqa cream, follow these steps:

  1. Wash the affected areas of the face and under the chin with a mild soap or cleanser and pat dry.
  2. Wait at least 5 minutes before applying Vaniqa cream.
  3. Squeeze out a pea-sized amount of Vaniqa cream onto your fingertips.
  4. Apply the cream evenly and thinly to the affected areas, covering the entire area with hair.
  5. Rub the cream gently and thoroughly into the skin until it is absorbed.
  6. Do not wash the treated areas of the face or under the chin for at least 4 hours after applying Vaniqa cream.

Vaniqa cream is for external use only and should not be used in the eyes, mouth, or vagina. Also, you should not rely solely on Vaniqa cream as your only hair removal method; you should continue to use other hair removal methods as directed by your healthcare provider
