What is Mirvaso and What Is It Used For?

Mirvaso is prescribed to patients with rosacea. The medication helps to reduce symptoms like redness.

Usage and Application

Before sourcing Mirvaso online, please read the medication guide provided by your doctor or pharmacist.

Mirvaso is indicated for external use only. Avoid getting the medication into the eyes and mouth. Do not apply on the lips or broken or irritated skin. Avoid skin that has been subjected to laser treatment. Do not apply on or inside the vagina.

Before applying Mirvaso, wash hands well. Clean and dry the affected area. Apply a pea-sized amount of medication to the affected area and spread it gently until it has formed a thin layer. Wash hands well after administering the medication.

Most patients are directed to use this medication once a day. Use Mirvaso regularly in order to experience its full benefit. To prevent forgetting, use the medication at the same time each day.

Some patients may be directed to use small amounts of the medication at first to avoid negative side effects. Follow your doctor’s directions closely and increase your dose gradually.

Patients should inform their doctor if their condition fails to improve or worsens.

Patients should keep Mirvaso in a safe place to prevent accidental use or misuse. Swallowing Mirvaso could cause serious side effects like sweating, trouble breathing, weakness, slow heartbeat, and confusion. Children who have swallowed Mirvaso should receive immediate medical attention.

Considerations Before Taking Mirvaso

Before starting treatment, patients need to discuss the possibility of allergic reactions to Mirvaso. It also contains inactive ingredients – like phenoxyethanol – which can cause allergic reactions.

It is vital to discuss the patient’s medical history, especially heart disease, depression, Raynaud's disease, and orthostatic hypotension. In addition, patients should report blood vessel diseases like thromboangiitis obliterans, as well as blood circulation disorders like cerebral or coronary insufficiency. Sjogren's syndrome and scleroderma should also be discussed with a physician.

Certain factors may trigger and worsen rosacea. This includes hot beverages, spicy foods, alcohol, wind, extreme cold, and sun exposure. Discuss these potential triggers with your doctor, and limit exposure to the sun by wearing wide-brimmed hats. Use a sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher.

Before surgery or certain dental procedures, patients should inform their doctor or dentist about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products they are taking.

Mirvaso should only be used when clearly needed during pregnancy. Pregnant women should discuss the risks and benefits of Mirvaso treatment with their doctor.

It is not known whether Mirvaso passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breastfeeding.

Delayed and Omitted Doses

Patients who miss a dose of Mirvaso should take it as soon as they remember. If this happens close to the time of the next dose, patients should skip the missed dose and proceed as usual. Do not double your dose to catch up.

Other Medications and Mirvaso

Drug interactions may change the way Mirvaso works, increasing the risk of side effects. Before starting treatment, patients need to discuss the full list of medications and supplements they are taking with their doctor. Patients should not change their dose or stop taking this medication unless their physician advises them to do so.

Patients should avoid the use of skin care products that can cause further irritation. Examples include tinctures, astringents, abrasives, peeling agents, and cleaners that contain alcohol. Patients should consult their doctor or pharmacist for more details.

Adverse Reactions

Most patients are able to take Mirvaso without serious side effects.

Common side effects include skin redness and a burning sensation of the skin. Patients should inform their doctor or pharmacist if these effects persist or worsen.

Serious side effects include slow heartbeat, dizziness, fainting, and pale/whitening skin.

Serious allergic reactions to Mirvaso are rare, yet patients should be aware of allergic symptoms such as rash, itching, and swelling (tongue/throat), severe dizziness, and trouble breathing.
