Short answer

Soolantra SPC information describes topical ivermectin use, precautions, and possible reactions; your prescriber should tailor advice to your skin and medicines.

This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

What prescribing information covers

Soolantra contains ivermectin and is applied to facial skin for inflammatory lesions of rosacea. Prescribing information helps clinicians check whether the medicine fits the diagnosis, identify allergies or sensitivities, and review other products being used. Topical use does not make every reaction harmless: dryness, burning, irritation, itching, and worsening redness can need review. Keep the product away from the eyes, lips, and broken skin unless instructed otherwise. The medicine is not interchangeable with every ivermectin product, including products used for scabies. Explore [Ivermectin](/materials/ivermectin/).

Before and during use

Tell your clinician about allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, eye disease, eczema, recent procedures, and all prescription or non-prescription skin products. Apply only as directed, wash your hands afterward, and avoid sharing the tube. If a dose is missed, follow the product or prescriber instructions rather than applying extra. Record troublesome reactions and stop experimenting with multiple new products at once, so the cause is easier to identify. A scabies plan should be supplied separately when that diagnosis is confirmed.

When to seek care

Seek emergency help for trouble breathing, throat or facial swelling, collapse, or widespread hives. Obtain prompt assessment for blistering, peeling, severe facial swelling, eye pain, vision change, fever, pus, or rapidly spreading redness. Report persistent burning or a rash that makes application difficult; the prescriber may need to reassess the diagnosis or routine.

Questions for your doctor

Ask whether your symptoms fit the approved use, which areas and schedule apply to you, what interactions or skin conditions matter, and how a reaction should be managed.
