What is Tazret 0.1% Cream?

Tazret 0.1% Cream is a topical dermatological medicine used to treat mild to moderate plaque psoriasis and acne vulgaris. It contains Tazarotene, a third-generation retinoid (Vitamin A derivative) that works on the deeper layers of the skin. Tarzet cream helps to reduce scaling, inflammation, clogged pores, and abnormal skin cell growth.

Plaque psoriasis causes dry, itchy, and scaly patches, while acne vulgaris results from excess oil production and blocked pores. Tazret helps normalise skin cell turnover, reduce redness, and clear acne lesions effectively.

It is for external use only and available strictly on prescription, commonly sold under the brand name Tazorac.

Tazret 0.1% cream is manufactured by Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Ltd., India, a trusted pharmaceutical company known for high-quality dermatology medicines, and you can buy it from us.

How Does Tazret 0.1% Cream Work?

Tazret contains Tazarotene, a Vitamin A derivative that works by penetrating the skin and slowing down excessive skin cell growth, a primary cause of psoriasis scaling and acne lesions. It also reduces substances that trigger inflammation, prevents pore clogging, and reduces skin thickening. As a result, redness, flaking, and acne bumps gradually improve, restoring smoother and clearer skin.

How to Apply Tazret 0.1% Cream?

Clean your hands and the affected skin before application of Tazret cream

Apply a small, thin layer of the cream to the affected area only and avoid healthy skin.

Gently massage until absorbed and wash your hands afterwards.

Use only as many times as your doctor prescribes and avoid applying to broken skin, cuts, or open wounds.
